Person

エーラーラ王の総大将で、スーランニミラに討たれ、バッルカの伯父にあたり、自らの行為ゆえに地獄に生まれ変わった後、過去の供養を思い出してただちに天界に生まれ変わった人物

Chief of Eḷāra’s generals. He was slain by Sūrannimila (Mhv.xxv.54, 62 f). Bhalluka was his nephew (Mhv.xxv.76). He offered a red cloth (rattapata) at the Ākāsacetiya on Samantakuṭa (Sumanagiri). He was born in hell, but the sight of the fires there recalled to him his offering and he was immediately born in heaven (MA.ii.955; AA.i.375).
