At the time of his birth all enterprises succeeded, hence his name. He lived as a householder for ten thousand years in three palaces – Kokā, Suppala and Kokanuda (Paduma) – his wife being Sumanā (Somanassā) and his son Anupama. He left home in a golden palanquin, practised austerities for ten months, had milk-rice given to him by a Brahmin maiden, Sunettā of Asadisa, and grass for his seat by a Yavapāla, Varuṇa. His bodhi was a kaṇikāra, and his first sermon was preached at Gayā. The Bodhisatta was an ascetic named Maṅgala, of Surasena. Samphala and Sumitta were his chief disciples among monks, and Sīvalā and Sarāmā among nuns, while Revata was his attendant. Chief among his laypatrons were Suppiya and Samudda and Rammā and Surammā. His body was sixty cubits high. He lived for one hundred thousand years, and died in the Anomārāma in the city of Anoma. His Thūpa was four leagues in height. Bv.xvii.; Bv­a.185ff.; Ja.i.49.
