Pāricchattaka Vimānavatthu

Once a pious follower of the Buddha, living at Sāvatthi, invited the Buddha to a meal and showed him great honour. A woman who had gone to the Andhavana to gather firewood picked some asoka flowers on the way, and, passing the Buddha, gave them to him and worshipped him. She was born after death in Tāvatiṃsa and questioned by Mahā-Moggallāna. Vv.iii.10; VvA.172 ff.
