Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita SastraMugapakkha (啶啶椸お啶曕啶�) refers to one of the six teachers mentioned in the Sunetras奴tra (cf the 2nd century Mah膩praj帽膩p膩ramit膩艣膩stra chapter XIV).鈥擜ccordingly:鈥擳he Sunetras奴tra which is in A峁単uttara lists six teachers (蝉补迟迟丑腻), ferrymen, completetly renounced (惫墨迟补谤腻驳补), having several hundreds of disciples to whom they taught the doctrine of participating in the world of Brahm膩 (viz., Brahmaloka). To criticize or insult them would be a grave demerit. These six teachers are Sunetra, Mugapakkha, Aranemi, Kudd膩laka, Hatthip膩la Jotip膩la.
Note: Buddhaghosa does not comment on this passage, but these six teachers are probably earlier births of the Buddha.
