He was also the first buddha of the Maṇḍa kalpa which was formed 92 aeons ago.

[1]His body was 60 cubits (90 feet) tall and people saw him as the Himalayas.

After the eight months, he began to practise alone and become enlightened under the Pterocarpus tree.

Before Tissa Buddha was enlightened, King Sujāta gave away his possessions and became a Brahmin.

In the Buddhavamsa, his death is described as: Like the clouds blown by the wind, the snow melted by the heat of the sun and the darkness lightened by a candle, he died along with his disciplesHis stupa was built in the same monastery and it was 3 yojanas high.
