The Samyutta Nikāya mentions an interview between an Elder
of this name and the Sākyan Mahānāma.
Mahānāma asks the Elder if the learner's
way of life is identical with that of the Tathāgata. Vangīsa answers that it is
not so; learners only abandon the five hindrances; arahants have completely
destroyed them from the root.
The interview took place in the Nigrodhārāma at
Kapilavatthu.
The name Lomasavangīsa is, probably, a wrong or variant
reading for Lomasakangiya. S. v.327f.
