3. Kosiya Thera.—An arahant. He belonged to a brahmin family in Magadha and was called by his gotta-name. He often listened to the preaching of Sāriputta and, joining the Order, in due course won arahantship. He was a gate-keeper of Bandhumatī and in the time of Vipassī Buddha gave to the Buddha a piece of sugar-cane.¹ He is probably identical with Ucchukaṇḍika of the Apadāna.²
