Kappa

Person

波婆离的弟子之一,其向佛陀请教如何从轮回洪流中寻求庇护,记载于《劫波学童所问》,后证得阿罗汉果。

One of Bāvarī’s disciples. The questions he asked of the Buddha are recorded in the Kappa-māṇava Pucchā. He asks the Buddha if there is any refuge from the flood of becoming, decay, and death. The Buddha says that there is a place of non-attachment where one can be at peace, no longer a slave of Māra. Kappa became an Arahant. Sn.vv.1007, 1092-5; SnA.ii.597.
