Channa.—A Wanderer, classed among those who wore clothes (\*paṭicchannaparibbājaka\*). He is only mentioned once, in the Aṅguttara Nikāya,¹ where we are told that he visited Ānanda at Sāvatthi and asked him questions about the Buddha’s teaching (see Channa Sutta below). Both the Sutta and the Commentary² add that he was pleased with Ānanda’s explanation, and admitted that the Buddha’s teachings were worthy of being followed, though it is not explicitly stated that he accepted them. - [Previous: v1.c17.56](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c17.56) - [Next: v1.c17.58](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c17.58) - [Up: v1.c17](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c17) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c17.57](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c17.57) · Pramāṇa
