Bhadrika (Skt. Bhadrika; Pali Bhaddiya; Tib. བཟང་ལྡན་, zang den, Wyl. bzang ldan) was one of the five ascetics who practised austerities with Shakyamuni Buddha before his enlightenment. He later became one of the Buddha’s first disciples and a stream enterer upon hearing the first turning of the wheel of dharma and upon hearing the second turning he became an arhat.
