Pubbaseliyā

Person

부처님 열반 후 이 세기에 잠부디파에서 일어난 열일곱 이단 부파 중 하나로, 안다카파와 연합했으며 티베트 전거에 따르면 푸르바 산에 거주한 데서 이름이 유래했다고 한다.

One of the seventeen heterodox sects that arose in Jambudīpa in the second century after the Buddha’s death (Mhv.v.12; Dpv.v.55).

According to the Kathāvatthu Commentary (see Points of Controversy xli.104, 108, 115) they belonged to the Andhakā school. Their views seem to have been similar to those of the Cetiyavādins (J.R.A.S. 1910, p.413 ff).

According to Tibetan sources (Rockhill: op.cit., 184) they were so called because they lived on the Pūrva Mountain.
