Bhaggavagotta

Person

Un ascète errant qui, contrairement aux ascètes nus, portait des vêtements, vivant près d’Anupiyā et ami de Sunakkhatta ; le Bouddha lui rendit visite pour une conversation consignée dans le Pāṭika Sutta ; il portait ce nom parce qu’il appartenait au clan Bhaggava.

A clothed Wanderer (chaṇṇaparibbājaka) (DA.iii.816), who lived in a pleasance near Anupiyā. He was a friend of Sunakkhatta (q.v.)

The Buddha once visited him, and their conversation is recorded in the Pāthika Sutta (q.v.) (D.iii.1 ff).

He was evidently so called because he belonged to the clan (gotta) named Bhaggava (? potters).
