Senaka6
PersonEin Arahant, Sohn der Schwester von Uruvela-Kassapa, der sich bekehrte, nachdem er den Buddha beim Gayāphagguna-Fest predigen hörte, und der zur Zeit des Buddha Sikhī diesem eine Handvoll Pfauenfedern darbrachte.
He was born in a brahmin family as the son of Uruvela-Kassapa’s sister. Senaka heard the Buddha teach at the Gayāphagguna festival, was converted, entered the Order, and attained Arahantship.
In the time of Sikhī Buddha he gave to the Buddha a handful of peacock feathers (Thag.vss.287-90; ThagA.i.388 f). He is evidently identical with Morahatthiya of the Apadāna. Ap.ii.403.
Thag 4.6
