One day, as he sat looking down over the Magadhakhetta, a great storm arose and the rain came down in torrents. The peacocks danced and sang and the coolness helped Cūlaka to concentrate his mind and attain arahantship. - [Previous: v1.c16.870](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c16.870) - [Next: v1.c16.872](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c16.872) - [Up: v1.c16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c16) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c16.871](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c16.871) · Pramāṇa
