Dīghajantu untranslated

Dīghajantu (v.l. Dīghajantuka, Dīghajayanta). Chief of Eḷāra’s generals. He was slain by Sūranimila (Mhv.xxv.54, 62f). Bhalluka was his nephew (Mhv.xxv.76). He offered a red cloth (rattapaṭa) at the Ākāsacetiya on Sumanagiri. He was born in hell, but the sight of the fires there recalled to him his offering and he was immediately reborn in heaven (MN­a.ii.955; AN­a.i.375).
