In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper NamesA merchant of Benares, the Bodhisatta.
He was a potter and owned a donkey who carried loads of pots and could travel seven leagues a day. Once Kappata took the donkey to Takkasila, where the latter became so enamoured of a female donkey that he refused to go home until the merchant promised to find him a mate equally beautiful. On reaching home the merchant offered to fulfil his promise, but refused to supply any extra food for the animals mate or for the foals if any were born. This opened the donkeys eyes, and he renounced his desire for a mate. The donkey is identified with Nanda, and the female donkey with Janapadakalyani Nanda (DhA.i.103f).
Therav膩da 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).
