  • dga’ yod gnas brtan ka pi na
Definition in this text:

A disciple of the Buddha. The Tibetan instance of dga’ yod gnas brtan ka pi na, which would render the name “Nandika Kapphiṇa,” is read in the Sanskrit source as brāhmaṇa­kapphiṇas sthaviraḥ, “the elder Brāhmaṇa­kapphiṇa.” This figure seems to be identical to Brāhmaṇa­kapphiṇa.
