Kapila6

Text

Монах, упоминаемый в Комментариях, чья жадность к имуществу привела к его перерождению голодным духом, которого видели летящим по воздуху с горящим верхним одеянием

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.
