Godhika Thera.—Son of a Malla chief in Pāvā. He went to Kapilavatthu with his friends, Subāhu, Vallīya and Uttiya, and there he saw the Twin Miracle and joined the Order, later attaining arahantship. (But see below.) At Rājagaha, Bimbisāra built a hut for him but forgot the roof. The gods prevented rain from falling till this error was rectified.
