Krakucchanda
[拘留孫仏] (Skt; Jpn Kuruson-butsu)
The fourth of the seven Buddhas of the past described in the Long Agama Sutra, the Seven Buddhas Sutra, and other Buddhist texts. The first three are said to have appeared in the past Glorious Kalpa, and the other four, the last being Shakyamuni, in the present Wise Kalpa. Krakucchanda is the first of the four Buddhas in the present Wise Kalpa. The Wise Kalpa Sutra describes Krakucchanda as the first of the thousand Buddhas in the present Wise Kalpa.
