Vedhañña
OtherAlso known as Vedañña
Un clan des Sakyas réputé pour son habileté au tir à l’arc, formé dans un collège d’un bosquet de manguiers où le Bouddha enseigna le Pāsādika Sutta, et qui semble avoir vécu à Sāmagāma
A clan of Sākyā.
Buddhaghosa says (DA.iii.905) they were skilled in archery (hence their name the “Archers”). They learnt their craft in a technical college (sippuggahanapāsāda) built in a mango grove.
It was there that the Pāsādika Sutta was taught (D.iii.17).
From the Sāmagāma Sutta (M.ii.244) it would appear that these Sākyā lived in Sāmagāma.
