Tathagata [Derivation uncertain. Buddhaghosa (DA
1.59-67) gives eight explanations showing that thero
was no fixed tradition on the point, and that he himself
was in doubt]. The context shows that the word is
an epithet of an Arahant, and that non-Buddhists were
supposed to know what it meant. The compilers of
the Nikayas must therefore have considered the expression
as pre-Buddhistic ; but it has not yet been found
in any pre-Buddhistic work. Mrs. Rhys Davids
(Dhs.tr. 1099, quoting Chalmers /.if. /I. S. Jan., 1898)
suggests " he who has won through to the truth." Had
the early Buddhists invented a word with this meaning
it would probably have been tathaijgata, but not
necessarily, for we have upadhi-karoti as well as
upadhig karoti. — D 1.12, 27, 46, 63; 11.68, 103, 108,
