Person

여섯 가지 화합의 원칙을 실천하기 시작한 후 우유죽을 담은 발우가 굶주린 순례 비구 오십 명을 기적적으로 배불리 먹였으며, 후에 축제에서 왕의 방해에도 불구하고 탐내던 어깨걸이 두 벌을 얻은 로나기리의 비구.

A monk resident in Lonagiri (Lenagiri). He once saw fifty monks, on their way to Nāgadipa on a pilgrimage, returning from their alms-rounds in Mahākhīragāma, with their bowls empty. Asking them to wait, he returned in a little while with his bowl of milk-rice which proved more than enough for the whole company. Seeing their astonishment, he explained that since he had begun to practise the Six Practices Evoking Friendship (sāraṇīyā-dhammā), his bowl had never lacked food.

At the Giribhandamahāpūjā-pūjā) at Cetiyapabbata, Tissa wished to have for himself two shawls, the most precious things there. He declared his wish in the presence of others and the king, on being informed, determined that Tissa should not have them, but every time he put out his hand to take the robes, they slipped away, and others took their place. In the end the robes were given to Tissa.⁵⁰
