v2.c27.106

**Paccāgamanīya Thera.**—An arahant. In the time of Vipassī Buddha he was a *cakkavāka* dwelling on the banks of the river Sindhu. One day, seeing the Buddha travelling through the air, the bird offered him a sāla flower in its beak. Seventeen kappas ago he was king eighteen times under the name of Sucārudassana.¹ He is probably identical with Puṇṇamāsa Thera.²
