Yaññadatta

1. Yaññadatta.– A brahmin, father of Koṇāgamana Buddha. D.ii.7; J.i.43; Bu.xxiv.17.

2. Yaññadatta.– Son of Āṇi Maṇḍavya. While he was playing, his ball rolled into an anthill, and, all unsuspecting, he put his hand in and was bitten by a snake. He was cured by “Acts of Truth” performed by his parents and by Kaṇha Dīpāyana (J.iv.30 f). See the Kaṇhadīpāyana Jātaka. He is identified with Rāhula. J.iv.37.
