Potaliputta
Person比丘サミッディに仏陀の業についての教えを誤って伝え、さらに問いただした後、態度を明らかにせぬまま去った遍歴行者で、これが仏陀にサミッディの拙速な返答を咎めさせる契機となった。この出来事はマハーカンマヴィバンガ・スッタに記されている。
A wanderer who visited Samiddhi at the Veḷuvana in Rājagaha and said that he had heard the Buddha declare that all action and speech were vain, and that what passed in the mind was the only thing of importance. A stage could be reached in which there was no feeling whatever. Samiddhi protested that Potaliputta misinterpreted the Buddha’s teaching, and Potaliputta then asked him questions regarding experience, which Samiddhi answered. Potaliputta, showing neither approval nor disapproval, walked away. When the Buddha heard from Ānanda of Potaliputta’s questions and Samiddhi’s answers he blamed Samiddhi for his hasty reply.
