Sāgara 01. The personal attendant of Sumedha Buddha. Ja.i.38; Bv.xii.23.

Sāgara 02. A Khattiya, father of Atthadassī Buddha and husband of Sudassanā. He lived in Sobhana (Bv.xv.14; Ja.i.39). The Apadāna (Ap.i.153; cf. Thag­a.i.153) mentions a monk, named Sāgara, a disciple of Atthadassī Buddha, who continued to live after the Buddha’s death. The two may have been identical.
