In Pâli ''Bihkhu''. The name given to the first followers of Sâkyamuni Buddha. Lit., “mendicant scholar”. The ''Sanskrit Chinese Dictionary ''explains the term correctly by dividing Bhikshus into two classes of ''Sramanas ''(Buddhist monks and priests), viz., “esoteric mendicants who control their nature by the (religious) law, and exoteric mendicants who control their nature by ''diet'';” and it adds, less correctly: “every true Bhikshu is supposed to work miracles” [[Category: CTD info from Theosophical Glossary]]<span style="color: grey; font-size: 90%; font-style: italic;"> (<span style="font-style: italic; border-bottom:1px dotted gray; cursor:help;" title="'Theosophical Glossary' by H.

One of the great Vedic Rishis. He is called “Son” by Manu, who confides to him his ''Institutes''. He is one of the Seven ''Prajâpatis ''or progenitors of mankind, which is equivalent to identifying him with one of the creative gods, placed by the Purânas in Krita Yug, or the first age, that of purity. Dr. Wynn Westcott reminds us of the fact that the late and very erudite Dr. Kenealy (who spelt the name ''Brighoo''), made of this Muni (Saint) the fourth, out of his twelve, “divine messengers” to the World, adding that he appeared in Tibet, A.N. 4800 and that his religion spread to Britain, where his followers raised the megalithic temple of Stonehenge. This, of course, is a hypothesis, based merely on Dr. Kenealy’s personal speculations [[Category: CTD info from Theosophical Glossary]]<span style="color: grey; font-size: 90%; font-style: italic;"> (<span style="font-style: italic; border-bottom:1px dotted gray; cursor:help;" title="'Theosophical Glossary' by H.
