v1.c12.3192

The Visuddhimagga⁶ mentions an Elder, Tissa, of Koṭa (Koṭi) pabbata, who, having attained arahantship through meditation on breathing, was able to limit the term of his life. According to the Dhammapada Commentary,⁷ an Elder named Anula lived in the monastery during the time of Duṭṭhagāmaṇi, and the village Bhokkanta, residence of Sumanā, wife of Lakuṇṭaka Atimbara, was in its vicinity. It was probably the same as Goṭapabbata⁸ (q.v.). The Nāgaleṇa was in the Koṭapabbata-vihāra.⁹
