Elder Sāriputta’s youngest brother Revata escaped from the household life, ordained, and soon after became an Arahat; after the Rains Retreat the Buddha visited him, and by spiritual power he transformed the thorn thickets he lived in into something well-equipped and quite delightful; when two old bhikkhus returned they found only a thorn thicket; the Buddha explained how it is so.
