Sariputra, one of the disciples of Gautam Buddha. He became Arhat renowned for his wisdom and is depicted in the Thervada tradition as one of the important disciples of the Buddha.
Sariputra came from a Brahmin family and had already embarked on life as a spiritual ascetic when he encountered the teachings of the Buddha. Sariputra had a close friend Mahamaudgalyayana (Pali: Mahamoggallana), another wandering ascetic. They both renounced the world on the same day and became disciples of the sceptic Sanjaya Beltthaputta before converting to Buddhism.
After hearing of the Buddha's teachings from a monk named Assaji (Sanskrit: Asvajit), Sariputra sought out the Buddha and became an adherent to his teachings. These two are often depicted together with the Buddha, and several sutras regard interactions between Sariputra and Mahamaudgalyayana (who became renowned among the early Buddhists for his mastery of supernatural powers).
