The Dulvā mentions⁴ that after the Buddha's death, when Mahā Kassapa wished to hold a Convocation of the chief monks, Puṇṇa was sent as a special messenger to summon Gavampati, who was then in the Serissaka-vimāna. But Gavampati did not attend, his death being imminent. Instead he sent his bowl and three robes as a gift to the Sangha.
