Once, there was a young man who wished to become a Buddha. He refrained from eating meat but ate fruits for survival. After the death, he was reborn in the womb of Sumontha Kaison Dokbuakham who ate the lotus fruit as food. At one night, she dreamed a crystal falling from the sky to her chest. Thereafter, she got pregnant and gave birth to her son. When the boy was thirteen years old, he excelled in the Tipitaka. Therefore, he had given name as Sangkha Sommutti Kukusandho.
