Person

人稱 Āraddhavipassaka-Tissa 的一位比丘,某日見蓮花隨日出綻放,恰聞一名婢女歌詠死亡無常,頓悟而修觀證得阿羅漢果。

A monk known as Āraddhavipassaka-Tissa. While walking about he saw a lotus open at the rising of the sun. Immediately afterwards, he heard a slave-girl singing; her song told of how men are subject to death just as the lotus opens to the sun. Tissa thereupon developed insight and became an Arahant.³¹
