Kapila6
TextEin in den Kommentaren erwähnter Mönch, dessen Gier nach Besitz dazu führte, dass er als hungriger Geist wiedergeboren wurde, der mit brennendem Obergewand durch die Luft fliegend gesehen wurde
The Majjhimanikāya Commentary (i.75) has a reference to a monk named Kapila, who, because of his greed for possessions, is described as having been reborn with a flaming outer-robe (saṅghātī pi ādittā hoti). This probably refers to a monk mentioned in the Pārājikā (Vin.iii.107), who was reborn as a peta and who could be seen going through the air with his robe aflame.
