Nehātakamuni Thera untranslated

Nehātakamuni Thera. He was a Brahmin of Rājagaha, who had become proficient in Vedic lore. Having become an ascetic, he dwelt in a forest glade, three leagues from Rājagaha, living on wild rice and worshipping fire. There the Buddha visited him and was entertained for three days. The Buddha taught him the Dhamma, and the ascetic became a Sotāpanna and, later, an Arahant. He continued to live in the jungle, and the Buddha visited him again when he fell ill of cramp.
