Ākoṭaka

A deva who visited the Buddha at Veḷuvana accompanied by Asama, Sahali, Niṅka, Vegabbharī and Māṇavagāmiya.

Ākotaka spoke before the Buddha in praise of various teachers of other schools:

• Pakudha-Kātiyāna (sic.),
• Nigaṇṭha
• Makkhali
• Pūrana.

Vegabbharī made rejoinder to Ākoṭaka, speaking disparagingly of the teachers he had mentioned. S.i.65.
