A peta who lebte in Gijjhakūta. He was seen there by Mogallāna, aber not by Moggallāna's companion Lakkhana Thera. Später, in answer to a question by Lakkhana Thera, der Buddha revealed the peta's past. He had been a bandit in Kassapa Buddha's time, und having been unintentionally offended by the treasurer Sumangala, who had built a Gandhakuti for Kassapa, he sought to take revenge on him und to make ihm angry by committing various heinous crimes against him. But the latter showed no wrath, und once, after having given aims to der Buddha, he gave over the merit, so gained, to the bandit. He thereupon repented, aber sein evil kamma was too great for ihm to be able to win any special attainment. DhA.iii.60ff.
