v2.c30.33

Bhaggavagotta.—A clothed Wanderer (channaparibbājaka),¹ who lived in a pleasaunce near Anupiyā. He was a friend of Sunakkhatta (q.v.). The Buddha once visited him, and their conversation is recorded in the Pāṭika Sutta (q.v.).² He was evidently so called because he belonged to the gotta named Bhaggava (? potters).
