Tissa39
PersonПослушник из Тисса-Махавихары, страдавший от отвращения к монашеской жизни, с большим трудом вырубивший себе пещеру на Читталапаббате, достигший архатства той же ночью и умерший на следующий день; позже над его останками была воздвигнута ступа.
A novice of Tissa-Mahāvihāra. He complained to his teacher of his distaste for the Order and the latter took him to Cittalapabbata. There, with great effort, Tissa built for himself a cave and while lying there during the night, became an Arahant, dying the next day. A thūpa called the Tissa-thera-cetiya was erected over his relics and this was still in existence in Buddhaghosa’s day.⁵⁵
