6. Senaka Thera.—He was born in a brahmin family as the son of Uruvela-Kassapa's sister. Senaka heard the Buddha preach at the Gayāphagguna festival, was converted, entered the Order, and attained arahantship. In the time of Sikhī Buddha he gave to the Buddha a handful of peacock feathers.¹ He is evidently identical with Morahatthiya of the Apadāna.²
