(පසේ fr. P. පච්චෙක=S. ප්රත්යෙ ක, each several, each, and බුදුන්), one of an inferior class of Buddhas, who appeared from time to time before Gautama Buddha. They had not the legislative power or prerogatives of a supreme Buddha and rendered no special assistance to others, though they themselves finally attained Nirvana.
