Bilaṅgika Bhāradvāja untranslated

Bilaṅgika Bhāradvāja. One of the Bhāradvāja brothers. On hearing that the eldest of the clan had entered the Saṅgha, he went to the Buddha, and, unable to speak for rage, sat on one side, sulking. The Buddha preached to him, and he was pleased and entered the Saṅgha, becoming an Arahant in due course (SN.i.164; Dhp­a.iv.163).

The Commentary explains (SN­a.1.178f) that he had earned large profits by running a shop for different kinds of excellently prepared “congey” (kañjikā). The name Bilaṅgika (bilaṅga being another name for such preparations) was given him by the Recensionists at the Third Council.
