Mahātissa5

Person

Монах из Пуннавалики, впавший в восторг при виде Великой Ступы в лунном свете, развивший силу медитативного сосредоточения, позволившую ему в итоге долетать туда по воздуху.

Of Puṇṇavallika. One full-moon day, at evening, he went to the courtyard of the Mahā Thūpa, saw the moonlight, and turning towards the shrine, entered into rapture, the Buddha being his object of thought. He habitually recalled this experience thenceforth until, one day, he was able to travel through the air to the Mahā Thūpa. Vism.143; DhSA.116.
