Nāgapupphiya
PersonUn Arahant qui, à l’époque du Bouddha Padumuttara, était un maître brahmane et qui, émerveillé de voir le Bouddha voler dans les airs, répandit des fleurs nāga sur son chemin ; il est probablement identique à l’ancien Dhammasava.
An Arahant. In the time of Padumuttara Buddha he was a Brahmin teacher, named Suvaccha. One day he saw the Buddha travelling through the air and, marvelling at the miracle, sprinkled nāga flowers along his route. Thirty-one world-cycles ago he was a king named Mahāratha (Ap.i.179). He is probably identical with Dhammasava Thera. ThagA.i.214.
