Personヴァナヴァーシー派のスリランカ僧で、ルーパシッディ(Rūpasiddhi)の著者ブッダッピヤ(Buddhappiya)とサマンタクータヴァンナナー(Samantakūṭavaṇṇanā)の著者ヴェーデハ(Vedeha)の師であり、文法書のシンハラ語訳も手がけた。
Teacher of Buddhappiya, author of the Rūpasiddhi. He was a native of Sri Lanka, for Buddhappiya refers to him as “Tambapaṇṇiddhaja.” He too belonged to the Vanavāsi sect and wrote a Sinhalese interverbal translation to Piyadassi’s Pada-Sādhana and another to the Khudda-Sikkhā. He was a disciple of Udumbaragiri Medhaṅkara, pupil of Sāriputta, and he probably lived in the time of Vijayabāhu III. (P.L.C. 211).
He was the teacher of Vedeha, author of the Samantakūṭa-vaṇṇanā (P.L.C. 220). See also Buddhavaṃsa Vanaratana Ānanda.
