疏「阿㝹樓馱」等者,亦云阿泥㝹豆,或云阿那律,亦云阿泥嚕多,並梵音楚夏。皆云無滅,亦云無貧。言「一食之施」者,《賢愚經》說「弗沙佛末世時饑饉,有辟支佛名利吒,行乞空鉢無獲。有一貧人見而悲憐,白言:『勝士!能受稗不?』即以所噉奉之。食已,作十八變。後更採稗,有兔跳抱其背,變為死人,無伴得脫。待暗還家,委之於地成金人。拔指隨生,用却還出,取之無盡。惡人告王,欲來奪之,但見死屍;而其所覩,即是金寶。」乃是現報若是。「九十一反」,即果報也。又「其生已後,家業豐溢日夜增益。父母欲試之,蓋空器皿往送,撥看百味俱足。而其門下日日常有一萬六千取債,一萬六千還直。出家已後,隨所至處人見歡喜,欲有所須如己家無異。即世尊之堂弟,斛飯王之次子也。」
Regarding the Commentary's mention of 'Aniruddha' and so forth: he is also called Aniniudou, or Analü, or Aninilütuo, all being Sanskrit variations of pronunciation. All are translated as 'Unextinguished' or 'Without Poverty'. As for the 'gift of a single meal': the Damamūka-nidāna Sūtra states that 'In the latter age of Puṣya Buddha, during a famine, there was a pratyekabuddha named Ṛṣidatta who went begging with an empty bowl and obtained nothing. A poor man saw him, felt pity, and addressed him: "Superior person! Can you accept barnyard millet?" He then offered what he was eating to him. Having eaten, [the pratyekabuddha] displayed eighteen transformations. Later, when [the poor man] went to gather barnyard millet again, a rabbit leaped onto his back and turned into a corpse; having no companion, he could not free himself. Waiting for darkness, he returned home and cast it onto the ground, where it turned into a golden man. Plucking a finger, another grew in its place; spending it, another emerged, inexhaustibly available. Evil people reported it to the king, wishing to seize it, but they saw only a dead corpse, whereas what he saw was gold and treasure.' Such was the visible retribution in this life. 'Ninety-one returns' refers to his karmic fruition. Furthermore, 'After he was born, his family wealth abounded, increasing day and night. His parents wished to test him; they covered an empty vessel and sent it to him, but when uncovered, it was filled with delicacies of a hundred flavors. At his gate every day, there were constantly sixteen thousand people taking loans and sixteen thousand paying debts. After leaving home, wherever he went people were delighted to see him, and whatever he needed was no different from being in his own home.' He was the paternal cousin of the World-Honoured One, the second son of King Droṇodana.
