According to the \*Sutta Nipāta\*,² it was owing to the elaborate preparations made by Keniya for the meal to the Buddha and the Saṅgha that the brahmin Sela, friend and counsellor of Keniya, came to discover the Buddha’s presence in Āpaṇa. The result was the conversion and ordination of Sela and his three hundred pupils.
