  • 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 the elder Vanavāsī Tissa, bestowed because when he came to Sāvatthi the citizens vied to honour him with a thousand alms bowls and a thousand robes, all of which he gave to the Order, a result of his having once given a piece of cloth to an elder in a former life.
