1. Buddhasaññaka Thera.—An arahant. In the time of Vipassī Buddha he was an earth-bound deva, and when, at the death of the Buddha, the earth trembled, he realized the Buddha’s might and honoured him in his heart. Fourteen kappas ago he was a king named Samita.¹ He is probably identical with Meghiya Thera.²
