Or 'vai' means 'everywhere' and 'śravaṇa' means 'hearing', meaning he is heard of everywhere, with the same meaning as the previous explanation. Another explanation says: 'vai' means 'that one'. This king's original name was Gugila. Later, at one time when the Buddha was preaching the Dharma to the assembly, this king put on a kāṣāya robe and entered the assembly. At that time, the multitude all found it strange and said to one another, 'That one is a śramaṇa! That one is a śramaṇa!' From this he was given the title 'Vaiśramaṇa' \[Vaiśravaṇa\]). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 21.88](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.21.88) - [Next: 21.90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.21.90) - [Up: 21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.21) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.21.89) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.21.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.21.89) · Pramāṇa
