An arhat particularly remembered for being able to command the goddess of the Ganges River to make it stop flowing. She was annoyed by the brusque way he commanded her, but the Buddha said she was his servant for centuries in previous lifetimes and he addressed her that way out of habit, which is explained to be why his name means “leftover habits.”
An arhat particularly remembered for being able to command the goddess of the Ganges River to make it stop flowing. She was annoyed by the brusque way he commanded her and complained to the Buddha, who explained that she had been Pilindivatsa’s servant in previous lifetimes, so he addressed her that way out of habit. This also explains his name, which literally means “leftover habits.”
