Ekapattadāyaka

Person

Un arahant qui, il y a quatre-vingt-onze cycles cosmiques, potier de Haṃsavatī, offrit à un Bouddha un bol d’argile bien façonné et, en conséquence, mangea désormais toujours dans des bols d’or et d’argent ; on le pense être la même personne que l’ancien Mahācunda.

An Arahant. In the past, ninety-one world-cycles ago, he was a potter of Haṃsavatī, and once gave a well-made bowl of clay to the Buddha. As a result, he always had his food in gold and silver bowls (Ap.ii.444).

He is probably identical with Mahācunda Thera. See ThagA.i.262.
