### [v2.c29.300](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c29.300)

According to the Commentary,⁵ all Bāvarī’s disciples and their sixteen thousand followers whom they had gathered on their way, became arahants at the conclusion of the Buddha’s sermon, save only Piṅgiya, Bāvarī’s nephew, who became an anāgāmī, because he had been thinking of Bāvarī when the Buddha preached. Piṅgiya took leave of the Buddha and returned to Bāvarī, to whom he recounted all these events. At the end of his recital, the Buddha appeared before them in a ray of glory and preached to them. Piṅgiya thereupon became an arahant and Bāvarī an anāgāmī.
