In the second chapter of the Dīpavaṁsa, the Buddha travels to Sri Lanka for a second time to settle a violent war between the Nāga kings, Mahodara and Cūḷodara. Using his supernatural powers, he creates a terrifying darkness to subdue their pride, eventually preaching a message of peace and reconciliation. The Nāgas convert to Buddhism, offering him a gem-set throne. The Buddha also visits several sacred sites, including Kalyāṇī and the future Mahāmeghavana.
