2. Vajjiputta Thera.—He belonged to a Licchavi rājā's family, and while still young, and learning various arts, such as training elephants, he was filled with the desire for renunciation. One day he went to a vihāra where the Buddha was preaching, entered the Order, and not long after became an arahant.
