Senaratana

Person

초대 위말라담마수리야의 사촌이자 후계자인 스리랑카의 왕으로, 포르투갈의 위협으로부터 불치를 옮겼으며 죽기 칠 년 전 장차의 라자시하 2세를 포함한 세 아들에게 왕국을 나누어 주었다.

King of Sri Lanka (1604-35 A.D.). He was the cousin and successor of Vimaladhammasūriya I and had his capital at Sirivaḍḍhanapura (Kandy). Because the Paraṅgī (Portuguese) did much damage to Buddhism, he removed the Tooth Relic to Pañcasata. He had three sons: Kumārasīha, Vijayapāla, and the best known of all, Rājasīha (afterwards Rājasīha II). He divided the country among his sons seven years before his death. Cv.xcv.1 ff.
