In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastra叠谤补丑尘腻测耻蝉 (啶啶班す啷嵿ぎ啶距く啷佮じ啷�) is the name of a Br膩hmin householder of olden times subdued by the Buddha mentioned in order to demonstrate the fearlessness of the Buddha according to the 2nd century Mah膩praj帽膩p膩ramit膩艣膩stra chapter XL.1.4. Accordingly, 鈥淏r膩hmin householders (驳峁沨蝉补迟丑补), having gone through all the worldly sciences and respected by great kings such as Fan-mo-yu (叠谤补丑尘腻测耻蝉), etc., all became his disciples. Some obtained the first fruit of the Path; others the second, third or fourth fruits鈥�.
叠谤补丑尘腻测耻蝉 was a br膩hmin from Mitil膩 in Videha. He was versed in the three Vedas and the auxiliary sciences. At the age of 108 years, he sent his disciple Uttara to the Buddha to learn if the latter indeed possessed all the physical marks of the Mah膩puru峁. The disciple was able to reassure him not only on the physical integrity of 艢膩kyamuni but also on his perfect deportment. Shortly afterwards, the Buddha came to Mithila and settled at Makh膩devambavana. 叠谤补丑尘腻测耻蝉 went to visit him and confirmed de visu the secret signs of the Buddha. Prostrating at his feet, he begged the Teacher to come to his home with the monks and he entertained them for a week. After the departure of the Community, 叠谤补丑尘腻测耻蝉 died and the Buddha declared that the old br膩hmin had found the fruit of an膩g膩min. 鈥� This is told in the 叠谤补丑尘腻测耻蝉utta of the Majjhima, II, p. 133鈥�146 (Tchong a han, T 26, k. 41, p. 685a鈥�690a; Lao p鈥檕 lo men king, T 75).
