Aṭṭhaka4

Person

一位藩属小王,与另外两位领主一同向菩萨苦行者沙罗槃伽(Sarabhaṅga)请教覆灭之王檀陀迦(Daṇḍaka)的命运,闻法后断除疑惑与情欲。

A King. When Daṇḍaka, having sinned against Kisavaccha, was destroyed with his realm, three of the subordinate lords within his kingdom — Kaliṅga, Aṭṭhaka, and Bhīmaratha — went to consult the Bodhisatta Sarabhaṅga on the fate of Daṇḍaka and his fellow-sinners. Their doubts were set at rest, and at the end of Sarabhaṅga’s discourse they became free of their sensuality (J.v.135-49). Sakka himself was present at the interview and asked questions of Sarabhaṅga.
