In the Buddha’s time, there was a monk named Tissa who strictly practiced meditaion under a mango tree and fasted for seven days. Even if there were many mangoes falling in that area, he did not eat, because there was no one to offer a mango to him. Later, there was a lay man who used to service him came and saw that, so he offered a mango to the monk. When the monk ate the mango, he continued to practice until he attained arahantship and later entered Nirvana. On the other hand, the lay man also received the rewards derived from the offering of the mango. After the death, he was reborn in heaven. Extent: 1 palm-leaf manuscript containing 8 leaves.
