1. Cannda.-A headman (gāmani) of Sāvatthi. He came to siehe der Buddha at Jetavana und asked ihm why some people earned the reputation of being wrathful und others of being kindly. Der Buddha explained that the one man gives way to passion, resentment und illusion; therefore, others harass him; he shows vexation und comes to be called wrathful. The other shows opposite qualities und is called kindly (sūrata) (S.iv.305). The Kommentar says (SA.iii.99) that the name Canda was given to the gāmani by the Elders who compiled the texts.

 

2. Cannda.-See Pañcālacanda.
