Được biết đến như: A Paribbājaka. A discussion between him and the Buddha on trance and on the soul, which took place in Mallikārāma in Sāvatthi, is reported in the Potthapāda Sutta. Potthapāda, accepting the Buddha's views, was jeered at by his companions for doing so. Two or three days later he again visited the Buddha with Citta Hatthisāriputta, when the Buddha continued the earlier discussion on personality and the soul. At the end of the discourse Potthapāda became the Buddha's follower (D.i.178ff). Potthapāda is identified with Pukkusa of the Mahā Ummagga Jātaka. J.vi.478.

Được biết đến như: A Paribbājaka who, with his friend Mandissa, visited the Buddha at the Ghositārāma (D.i.159). The Buddha preached to them the Jāliya Sutta. According to the Pātika Sutta, when Jāliya heard that Pātika could not come to hold a discussion with the Buddha at Vesāli, he went to the Tindukkhāna-paribbājakārāma and tried to get Pātikaputta to come. But the latter was unable to come, being fixed in his seat. Jāliya thereupon spoke insultingly to him, calling him boaster, etc. (D.iii.22ff).

Được biết đến như: 1. Mahāli A Licchavi chief, mentioned as having visited the Buddha at the Kūtāgārasālā to ask if he had seen Sakka (S.i.230; DhA.i.263ff. add that the Buddha here related to him the story of Magha) and also to beg information as to the teachings of Pūrana Kassapa (S.iii.68). This conversation resulted from Mahāli having heard the Sakkapañha Sutta. (See Mahāli Sutta.) Mahāli was educated at Takkasilā. After his return to Vesāli, he devoted himself to the education of the young Licchavi men, but, through overexertion, lost his sight. He continued to instruct them, however, and was given a house by the gate, which led from Sāvatthi into Vesāli. The revenue from this gate, worth one hundred thousand, was given to him (DhA.i.338). When Bandhula came to Vesāli, to satisfy the pregnancy longings of his wife Mallikā, Mahāli, hearing the rumble of his chariot, instantly recognised it. He warned the Licchavis not to interfere with Bandhula, and, finding that they insisted on pursuing him, urged them to turn back when they saw Bandhula's chariot sink up to the nave, or at least when they heard a, sound like the crash of a thunderbolt, or when they saw a hole in the yokes of the chariot. But they paid no heed to his warnings and were killed (DhA.i.350f.; J.iv.148f). When the Licchavis decided to invite the Buddha to Vesāli, to rid the city of its plagues, Mahāli it was who went with the son of the purohita to Veluvana to intercede with Bimbisāra, that he might persuade the Buddha to come. Mahāli was a favourite of Bimbisāra and a member of his retinue. He had attained sotāpatti at the same time as the king (DhA.iii.438). This Mahāli is perhaps identical with the Mahāli mentioned in the Apadāna (Ap.ii.494, vs.28) as the father of Sīvalī. His wife was Suppavāsā.

He was a student under Nāgita, and was with him when the Buddha once stayed in Vesāli. Seeing a great number of people coming to visit the Buddha, he informed Nāgita of this, and, with his permission, went to tell the Buddha. This led to the preaching of the Mahāli Sutta (D.i.151). Buddhaghosa adds (DA.i.310) that Nāgita was fat and lazy and that most of his work was done by Sīha, who was his sister's son.

The Buddha preached to him the Kūtadanta Sutta. At the end of the discourse he became a Sotāpanna (D.i.127ff).

When the Buddha was in Campā, on the banks of the Gaggarā-lake, Sonadanda visited him in spite of the protests of his friends and colleagues. Their conversation is recorded in the Sonadanda Sutta. At the end of the discourse, Sonadanda expressed his appreciation of the Buddha and his doctrine, and invited him and his monks to a meal. At the conclusion of the meal Sonadanda asked the Buddha to forgive him if, in the presence of the brahmins, he did not make humble obeisance to the Buddha, but merely saluted him.

He once visited the Buddha at Kajangalā in the Mukheluvana and the Buddha preached to him the Indriya-bhāvanā Sutta (M.iii.298ff). Perhaps it is this same mānava that is mentioned in the Pāyāsi Sutta. When Pāyāsi Rājañña was converted by Kumāra Kassapa, he instituted almsgiving to all and sundry, but the gifts he gave consisted of such things as gruel and scraps of food and coarse robes. Uttara, who was one of his retainers, spoke sarcastically of Pāyāsi's generosity, and on being challenged by Pāyāsi to show what should be done, Uttara gave gladly and with his own hands excellent foods and garments. As a result, after death, while Pāyāsi was born only in the empty Serisakavimāna of the Cātummahārājika world, Uttara was born in Tāvatimsa. D.ii.354-7; see also VvA.297f. where the details are slightly different.

Được biết đến như: 3. Bhaggava. A potter in Rājagaha in whose dwelling the Buddha met and conversed with Pukkusāti (M.iii.237). Bhaggava seems to have been a generic name for all potters, perhaps a special form of address used towards members of the kumbhakāra "caste." Thus we find in the books several instances of potters being addressed as "Bhaggava". E.g., DhA.i.33; J.ii.80, iii.382. At J.111.382 the potter's wife is addressed as "Bhaggavī." In the Samyutta Nikāya (S.i.36, 60) the Buddha addresses Ghatīkāra Brahmā as "Bhaggava"; he had been a potter of Vehalinga in his previous birth and the name "Ghatīkāra" itself means "jar maker." The Commentaries give no explanation of the word; perhaps the potters claimed their descent from Bhrgu. Bhaggava is sometimes given as an example of a gotta. E.g., Sp.i.160 (with Gotama). See also Bhaggavagotta.

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 Ananda of Potaliputta's questions and Samiddhi's answers he blamed Samiddhi for his hasty reply. For details see Mahākammavibhanga Sutta. (M.iii.207 ff.)

The Samyutta Nikāya (S.i.53) records a conversation between Candana and the Buddha and a visit paid by Candana to Mahā Moggallāna (S.iv.280).

He was present at the meeting between the Buddha and Bimbisāra, and was so impressed thereby that he joined the Order. Once, while he was at the Tapodārāma musing on his good fortune as a monk, Māra tried to terrify him. Samiddhi told the Buddha of this, but the Buddha asked him to stay on where he was. He obeyed, and soon afterwards won arahantship. He then declared his aññā in a verse (Thag.vs.46), and Māra retired discomfited. This episode is also given at S.i.119 f, but the place mentioned is not the Tapodārāma, but Silāvati.

When this was reported to the Buddha he said that Jayasena, being given up to luxury, could not be expected to appreciate renunciation (M.iii.128). A discussion which Jayasena had with his uncle Bhūmiya Thera is recorded in the Bhūmiya Sutta. In this case we are told that Jayasena was pleased with the discourse and entertained Bhūmiya to his own dish of rice (M.iii.138). Buddhaghosa (MA.ii.932) says that Jayasena was Bimbisāra's own son (Bimbisārassa putto orasako).

But the legends connected with them are so confused that it is not possible to differentiate clearly one from the other. Mention is also made of a Cunda-Samanuddesa whom, however, the Commentaries (E.g.. DA.iii.907) identify with Mahā-Cunda. Mahā-Cunda is, for instance, described in the Theragāthā Commentary (ThagA.i.261; see also DhA.ii.188 and AA.ii.674) as the younger brother of Sāriputta, under whom he joined the Order, winning arahantship after arduous and strenuous effort.

Once, at the request of his teacher, he visited the Buddha in the Icchānadkala wood and seems to have opened his conversation by reviling the Sākiyans and calling them menials. It appears that Ambattha had once gone on some business of Pokkharasādi's to Kapilavatthu, to the Mote Hall of the Sākyans, and had been insulted there (D.i.91).

He blamed her for thus extolling a shovelling monk, but when she told him of the Buddha’s marvellous qualities, he felt a desire to see him. Some time after, the Buddha went to Candalakappa and stayed in Todeyya’s Mango grove. When Dhānañjānī told Sangārava that he was there, Sangārava visited him and questioned him on his views on brahmins. The Buddha said he had great regard for brahmins who had here and now won the goal, having discovered unaided a doctrine before unknown. He himself was one of these. He then proceeds to describe how he came to leave the household life and how, in due course, he won Enlightenment.
