Piṇḍapātadāyaka Tissa

Other

ヴァナヴァーシー・ティッサ長老に与えられた四つの名の一つ。彼がサーヴァッティーに来たとき、市民たちが千の鉢と千の衣で敬おうと競い合い、それらすべてを僧団に施したことに由来し、これは前世で長老に一片の布を施したことの果報である

One of the four names given to Vanavāsī Tissa (that being the last), because, when he came to Sāvatthi, the citizens vied with one another to do him honour, and in two days he was given one thousand bowls of alms and one thousand garments, all of which he gave to the Order. This was due to his having given in a previous birth a piece of cloth to an elder. DhA.ii.88.
