Nāgapupphiya Thera untranslated

Nāgapupphiya Thera 01. An Arahant. In the time of Padumuttara Buddha he was a Brahmin teacher, named Suvaccha. One day he saw the Buddha travelling through the air and, marvelling at the miracle, sprinkled Nāga flowers along his route. Thirty-one kappas ago he was a king named Mahā Ratha (Ap.i.179). He is probably identical with Dhammasava Thera. Thag­a.i.214.

Nāgapupphiya Thera 02. An Arahant. Probably identical with Lomasakaṅgiya (Thag­a.i.84). Ninety-one kappas ago he saw the Buddha (Vipassī?) walking along the street and offered him Nāga flowers. Ap.ii.450.
