Vajjiputta's story is also given in the Dhammapada Commentary.³ There he is called a rājā, and is said to have renounced his kingdom when his turn came to rule. On the day of the festival, on the full-moon day of Kattika, he was filled with discontent. After his conversation with the woodland sprite, he sought the Buddha, who preached to him. He attained arahantship at the end of the Buddha's sermon.
