Anitthigandhakumāra4
Person一位辟支佛,波羅奈王之子,與前則情節相似——未婚妻於赴婚途中身故,他因悲慟而深入禪思,終證辟支佛果;其偈頌之一收於 Khaggavisāṇa Sutta。
A Pacceka Buddha. He was the son of the King of Bārāṇasī. In a previous birth he had been a monk for 20,000 years, during the dispensation of Kassapa Buddha. His story is very similar to that of No.3 above, the wife chosen being the daughter of Maddava, King of Sāgala. When the princess died, on her way to be married, the prince gave himself up to contemplation and became a Pacceka Buddha (SnA.67 ff; ApA.i.126-7). A stanza attributed to him is included in the Khaggavisāṇa Sutta. Sn.p.6, v.36.
