For seven days he renewed the supply of flowers. On the seventh day a large concourse of humans and devas assembled to hear the Buddha preach. The hunter listened to the sermon, and was born after death in the deva-world.¹ He is probably identical with Padumakūṭāgāriya of the Apadāna.² \*v.l.\* Pārāpariya. - [Previous: v2.c27.1500](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27.1500) - [Next: v2.c27.1502](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27.1502) - [Up: v2.c27](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27.1501](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27.1501) · Pramāṇa
