Koṇāgamana Buddha (Pāli), known as Kanakamuni in Sanskrit, also known as Koṇāgon or Kanakagamana, is one of the ancient Buddhas whose biography is chronicled in chapter 23 of the ''Buddhavamsa'', one of the books of the Pāli Canon. According to Theravāda Buddhist tradition, Koṇāgamana is the twenty-sixth of the twenty-nine named Buddhas, the fifth of the Seven Buddhas of Antiquity, and the second of the five Buddhas of the present kalpa. The present kalpa is called the ''bhadrakalpa'' (Auspicious aeon). The five Buddhas of the present kalpa are: #Kakusandha (the first Buddha of the bhadrakalpa) #Koṇāgamana (the second Buddha of the bhadrakalpa) #Kassapa (the third Buddha of the bhadrakalpa) #Gautama (the fourth and present Buddha of the bhadrakalpa) #Maitreya (the fifth and future Buddha of the bhadrakalpa) Koṇāgamana was born in Subhagavati Park in Sobhavati〔 (now known as Araurakot, located about southwest of Nigalihawa) on Wednesday; because of this Koṇāgamana is placed on the Wednesday pedestal. According to Xuanzang, Koṇāgamana's relics were held in a stupa in Nigalisagar, in what is now Kapilvastu District in southern Nepal. There is an Ashoka pillar at the site today. ==See also== *Bhadrakalpikasutra 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Koṇāgamana Buddha」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
