In the Uttaramātu-peta Vatthu,⁷ Uttara’s mother having been born as a peta, and having wandered about for fifty-five years without water, came upon Revata enjoying the siesta on the banks of the Ganges and begged him for succour. Having learnt her story, Revata gave various gifts to the Saṅgha in her name, and so brought her happiness.
