Opavuyha Thera

An Arahant. In the past he offered an thoroughbred horse (ājāniya) to Padumuttara Buddha, but the Buddha’s chief disciple, Devala, informed him that the Buddha could not accept the gift. Thereupon he gave other suitable gifts to the value of the horse.

Twenty-eight times he was king of all Jambudīpa. Thirty-four world-cycles ago he was a Cakkavatti of great power (Ap.i.106 f).
