Buddhaghosa2
Other동명의 위대한 주석가와 구별하기 위해 쭐라 붓다고사라 불리는, 두 저작의 저자로 알려진 스리랑카 승려로, 그의 요청으로 붓다고사(1)가 아비담마 주석서를 저술했다
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.
