Ariṭṭhakā

Other

마하사마야 숫타가 설해질 때 참석한 천신들의 부류로, 짙푸른 꽃과 같은 색이라 묘사된다. 다만 붓다고사는 같은 용어를 다른 천신 부류를 가리키는 것으로 해석한다.

A class of devas who were present at the teaching of the Mahāsamaya Sutta.

They were like azure flowers in hue (ummāpupphanibhāsino). D.ii.260.

Buddhaghosa, however, explains “ummāpupphanibhāsina” as being the name of another class of devas (DA.ii.690).

DN 20
