Nāgalena untranslated

Nāgalena. A cave in Koṭipabbata vihāra. A novice once recited there the Mahā Samayasutta, and a goddess, in the Nāga tree outside, applauded him. She had been present when the Buddha preached the Sutta when, she said, the concourse of Devas was so great that she could get a foothold only in the sea near Maha Gāma in Ceylon; yet she could see and hear the Buddha distinctly.
