Naḷamāliya Thera

1. Naḷamāliya Thera.– An Arahant. Once he gave a fan, made of reeds, to Padumuttara Buddha, who praised his gift. He became king many times under the name of Subbata and eight times under that of Māluta (Ap.i.143 f ) He is probably identical with Kuṭivihārī Thera (ThagA.i.131).

2. Naḷamāliya Thera.– An Arahant. Thirty-one world-cycles ago he saw Sikhī Buddha and gave him a garland of reed flowers (Ap.ii.412). He is probably identical with Dhaniya Thera (ThagA.i.347).
