Mahinda pointed out to the king various spots destined to be connected with the growth of the *sāsana* in Ceylon, offering flowers at the same, and at the site of the (later) Mahā Thūpa, he described the visits of the Four Buddhas of this *kappa* to Ceylon. On the fourth day he preached the Anamatagga Sutta in Nandanavana and helped the king in defining the boundaries of what later became the Mahāvihāra. On the fifth day he preached the Khajjanīya Sutta, on the sixth the Gomayapiṇḍi Sutta, and on the seventh the Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta.
