Jayasena4
Person사미 아치라와따의 법 설명에 처음에는 확신하지 못했으나 후에 삼촌인 부미자 장로의 설법으로 설득된 왕자로, 부미자경에 기록되어 있다. 붓다고사는 그를 빔비사라 자신의 아들로 본다.
A prince who once visited the novice Aciravata at Veḷuvana in Rājagaha and asked him to teach the Doctrine. Reluctantly the novice did so, but at the end of the exposition Jayasena declared that he was unable to agree with it.
When this was reported to the Buddha he said that Jayasena, being given up to luxury, could not be expected to appreciate renunciation (M.iii.128).
A discussion which Jayasena had with his uncle Bhūmija Thera is recorded in the Bhūmija Sutta. In this case we are told that Jayasena was pleased with the discourse and entertained Bhūmija to his own dish of rice (M.iii.138).
Buddhaghosa (MA.ii.932) says that Jayasena was Bimbisāra’s own son (Bimbisārassa putto orasako).
