10. Sirivaḍḍha Thera.—His father was a rich man of Rājagaha and he was present when the Buddha visited Bimbisāra. Impressed by the Buddha’s majesty, Sirivaḍḍha joined the Order and lived in a forest near Vebhāra and Paṇḍava meditating. A great storm arose one day, and the Thera, cooled by the rain, was able to concentrate his mind and win arahantship.¹
