The Buddha's Path of Virtue

Note 3 — Glory to Him, the Blessed Saint, the All-Enlightened one.

F. L. (Frank Lee) Woodward translation

Samana, "ascetic," a title originally contemptuously applied to the Buddha and His disciples by the Brāhmaṇas. The word is etymologically derived from V. sam—to tame or quiet. Hence the reference in v. 265.
