He was born in the Subhagavatī Park in Sobhavati, the capital of King Sobha, his father being the brahmin Yaññadatta and his mother Uttarā. He lived in the household for three thousand years, in three palaces, Tusita, Santusita and Santuṭṭha; his chief wife was Rucigattā and their son was Satthavāha. Konāgamana left the world on an elephant and practised austerities only for six months, at the end of which time he was given milk-rice by the daughter of the brahmin Aggisoma and grass for his seat by the yavapālaka Tinduka. His bodhi was an Udumbara tree. His first sermon was preached in the Migadāya near Sudassana-nagara, at the foot of a Mahā-sāla tree. He held only one assembly of his disciples, who numbered thirty thousand. His body was thirty cubits in height. He died in the Pabbatārāma at the age of thirty thousand. His relics were scattered. His chief disciples were Bhīyya and Uttara among monks, and Samuddā and Uttarā among nuns, his constant attendant being Sotthiya. His chief patrons were Ugga and Somadeva among laymen, and Sivalā and Sāmā among laywomen. The Bodhisatta was a khattiya named Pabbata of Mithilā. He held an almsgiving, heard the Buddha preach and joined the Order.¹ The banker Ugga built for the Buddha a Saṅghārāma half a league in extent.² - [Previous: v1.c12.3258](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12.3258) - [Next: v1.c12.3260](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12.3260) - [Up: v1.c12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12.3259](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12.3259) · Pramāṇa
