Buddhaghosa2
Other同名の偉大な注釈家と区別するためチューラ・ブッダゴーサと呼ばれる、二つの著作を著したとされるスリランカの僧で、その依頼によりブッダゴーサ（1）がアビダンマ注釈を著した
Called Culla Buddhaghosa to distinguish him from the greater. He was a native of Sri Lanka (Gv.67), and two works are ascribed to him (Gv.63) — the Jātattagīnidāna and the Sotattagīnidāna. The former probably refers to the Jātakaṭṭhakathā (P.L.C.126). It was at his request that Buddhaghosa (1) wrote his Commentaries to the Abhidhamma. Gv.68.
