Kāḷa2

Person

在家女性から実の息子のように献身的に世話をされていた長老で、その世話を失うことを恐れ、彼女が仏陀を訪ねるのを思いとどまらせようとし、説法さえも妨げようとした。

An elder. A certain woman ministered to him as though he were her son, but when she expressed her desire to see the Buddha, Kāḷa tried to dissuade her from doing so. One day she visited the Buddha without telling Kāḷa of her intention, and when he learnt where she had gone he hurried to the Buddha and tried to prevent him from teaching her, in case she should stop caring for him. DhA.iii.155 f
