Anitthigandhakumāra4

Person

Паччека-будда, сын царя Варанаси, чья похожая скорбь безутешного жениха по невесте, умершей по пути на свадьбу, привела его к созерцанию и обретению состояния паччека-будды; строфа, приписываемая ему, включена в Кхаггависана-сутту.

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.
