Or it is said that he was Cowherd Nanda, who waited for the people of the village of Āyu before attaining the Way. Or it is said that he was still of the Śākya clan; one hundred thousand members of the Śākya clan left the household life, and Nanda was one of them. By nature, he was exceedingly frivolous, yet intelligent, and his voice was matchlessly wonderful. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.235](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.1.235) - [Next: 1.237](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.1.237) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721~en-mt.1.236) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.1.236](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.1.236) · Pramāṇa
