A brahmin teacher of Sāvatthi. He visited the Buddha at the Pubbārāma, and the Buddha preached to him the Ganaka-Moggallāna Sutta, after which, it is said, he became the Buddha's follower (M.iii.1ff). His name and his teaching seem to indicate that he was a mathematician. Updated: 15 September 2011 http://What-Buddha-Said.net/library/DPPN/g/ganaka_mogg.htm |
