is the name of one of the Ceylonese gods; he is supposed to have arrived at supremacy, after successive transmigrations, from the lowest state of an insect, through the various species of living animals. There have been three deities of this name, each of which is supposed to reign as long as a bird removes a hill of sand, half a mile high, and five miles round, by a single grain in a thousand years. See Sakradawendra.
