Saṃghabhadra 僧伽跋陀羅 (fl. late 5th c.) was a vinayācārya probably of the Theravāda school who arrived in Guǎngzhōu in the early Yǒngmíng 永明 reign-period of the Southern Qí 蕭齊 dynasty (483–493). His sole extant translation is the Shàn-jiàn lǜ pípóshā 善見律毘婆沙 (KR6k0043, T24n1462), the eighteen-fascicle Chinese translation of Buddhaghosa’s Samantapāsādikā — the canonical Theravāda commentary on the Pāli Vinaya-piṭaka. Completed at Guǎngzhōu’s Zhúlín-sì 竹林寺 in 489 CE, this translation is the only direct evidence in the Chinese canon of Theravāda exegetical tradition and is one of the very few Pāli-derived texts in Chinese Buddhism. Saṃghabhadra is to be distinguished from his namesake the Sarvāstivāda Saṃghabhadra (5th-century author of the Nyāyānusāra / 順正理論) — they are different persons.
