Tiṇamuṭṭhidāyaka Thera untranslated

Tiṇamuṭṭhidāyaka Thera. An Arahant. Ninety-four kappas ago he was a hunter. One day, seeing Tissa Buddha (v.l. Upatissa) in the forest near Lambaka, he gave him a handful of grass for a seat. He was soon afterwards killed by a lion and was born in the Deva-world (AN.i.280f). The same story is given elsewhere (AN.ii.454f) in somewhat different words.

This Elder is evidently to be identified with Posiya Thera. Thag­a.i.97.
