Mahāpaccarī

An old Commentary on the Tipiṭaka, used by Buddhaghosa in the compilation of his works.

It is often referred to in the Samantapāsādikā and its comments quoted.

Tradition has it that it was so called because it was compiled on a raft. e.g., Sp.i.283; iii.527, 536, 553, 615; iv. 763, 770, 776, 778, 782, 803, 806, 807, 813, 861, 914, 923, etc.
