Kaṇhadinna
PersonUn arahant issu d’une famille brahmane de Rājagaha qui atteignit l’éveil après avoir entendu l’enseignement de Sāriputta, et qui, dans une vie antérieure, offrit une fleur puṇṇāga au Bouddha Sobhita
An Arahant. He belonged to a brahmin family in Rājagaha. Having heard Sāriputta teach, he entered the Order and became an Arahant. In the past he met Sobhita Buddha and offered him a puṇṇāga-flower (Thag.v.179; ThagA.i.304).
He is evidently the same as Kaṇhadinna, son of Bhāradvāja Thera (ThagA.i.303), and is probably identical with Giripuṇṇāgiya of the Apadāna (ii.416).
