Ākoṭaka

A deva who visited the Buddha at Veḷuvana accompanied by Asama, Sahali, Niṅka, Veṭambarī and Māṇava-Gāmiya.

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

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

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