Tikhiṇamanti.—Brother of Cūḷanī-Brahmadatta. He was born while his mother, Talatā, was living with the brahmin Chambhī, after having killed Mahācūḷanī. On discovering his real parentage, he killed Chambhī, and, having taken the throne, sent for his brother, Cūḷanī, who was then in exile, and crowned him king.¹ It is said² that, later, Cūḷanī was displeased because Tikhiṇamanti ceased to attend at the palace.
