Anitthigandhakumāra4
PersonEin Pacceka-Buddha, Sohn des Königs von Bārāṇasī, dessen ähnliche Trauer als Bräutigam über den Tod seiner Braut auf dem Weg zur Hochzeit ihn zur Kontemplation und zur Pacceka-Buddhaschaft führte; eine ihm zugeschriebene Strophe ist im Khaggavisāṇa Sutta enthalten.
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.
