In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
1. Korandapupphiya Thera - An arahant. Ninety one kappas ago he saw the footprint of the Buddha Vipassi and offered to it a koranda plant in bloom. Fifty seven kappas ago he was a king named Vitamala (Ap.i.206). He is probably to be identified with Ramaniyavihari. ThagA.i.116.
2. Korandapupphiya Thera - An arahant. He was a woodsman in the time of Tissa Buddha, and having seen three footprints of the Buddha, he offered to him a flowering koranda plant. In all subsequent births his skin was the colour of the koranda flower. The same verses appear in two places in the Apadana with very slight variations (Ap.ii.383, 434). Perhaps these are two distinct persons, because in the Theragatha Commentary the verses appear twice - once under the name of Sugandha (ThagA.i.81) and once under that of Sabbamitta (ThagA.i.270).
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).
