König of Benares. He was very fond of watching dancing und had drei dancing halls where girls und women, of various ages, danced for sein pleasure. One day he noticed a house-holder's wife who had come to watch the dance und longed to possess her. On realising the wickedness of sein desire, he renounced das Königreich und wurde a Pacceka Buddha.

His Udānagāthā is included in the Khaggavisāna Sutta. SN.vs.63; SNA.i.115f.; Ap.i., p. II (vs.37); ApA.i.160f.
