In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastra厂颈峁僪补丑补苍耻 (啶膏た啶傕す啶灌え啷�) is the name of an ancient king of the solar clan (腻诲颈迟补驳辞迟谤补 or 蝉奴谤测补惫补峁兣沘) according to Mah膩praj帽膩p膩ramit膩艣膩stra (chapter VI). Accordingly, 鈥淥nce there was a king of the solar clan (腻诲颈迟补驳辞迟谤补) named 厂颈峁僪补丑补苍耻. This king had four sons: 1) 艢uddhodana, 2) 艢uklodana, 3) Dro峁噊dana, 4) Am峁泃膩rasa鈥�.
Note: Here the Mah膩praj帽膩p膩ramit膩艣膩stra adopts the genealogy of the 惭补丑腻惫补蝉迟耻 I. The Fo pen hing tsi king gives the same information. On the other hand, the M奴lasarv膩stiv膩din Vinaya attributes four sons and four daughters to Si峁僪ahana: 艢uddhodana, 艢uklodana, Dro峁噊dana, Am峁泃odana, 艢uddh膩, 艢ukl膩, Dro峁嚹�, Am峁泃膩. According to the Singhalese chronicles (D墨pava峁僺a III.45; Mah膩va峁僺a II.20), S墨hahanu had five sons and two daughters: Suddhodana, Dhotodana, Sakkodana, Sukkodana, Amitodana, Amit膩, Pamit膩. The genealogy proposed by the Che eul yeou king requires the greatest stretch of the imagination.
Mahayana (啶す啶距く啶距え, mah膩y膩na) is a major branch of Buddhism focusing on the path of a Bodhisattva (spiritual aspirants/ enlightened beings). Extant literature is vast and primarely composed in the Sanskrit language. There are many 蝉奴迟谤补蝉 of which some of the earliest are the various Praj帽膩p膩ramit膩 蝉奴迟谤补蝉.
