  • Aggapandita

A native of Burma and author of the Lokuppattipakarana, written at Pagan in the thirteenth century (Gv.64, 67). The Pitakatthamain calls the work Lokuppattipakāsanī ( Bode, 16, n.3).

The Sāsanavamsa (74) speaks of three monks by the name of Aggapandita: Mahā-Aggapandita (evidently our author), Dutiya-Aggapandita (his saddhivihārika), and Tatiya-Aggapandlita (his nephew), all of Arimaddanapura and all famed for their learning.
