Gavampati (Buddha's disciple)

Gavāṃpati is a disciple of the Buddha, one of the first ten to be ordained and to have known the state of Arhat. In Southeastern Buddhism, Gavāṃpati has become a preeminent character. In Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and the Shan states, the Mon cult of Gavampati has survived.[1]

Notes

    gollark: Nope, because `sudo python3 -m http.server 80` works fine.
    gollark: I mean, what does `Feb 12 00:00:38 loki nginx-quic[4965]: 2021/02/12 00:00:38 [emerg] 4965#4965: socket() 0.0.0.0:80 failed (94: Unknown error)` MEAN?
    gollark: Extremely troubling news: osmarks.net is down indefinitely due to incomprehensible nginx errors.
    gollark: Maybe I should link to mondecitronne.com and stuff on osmarks.net.
    gollark: Or OIR:EM.
