In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper Names1. Cittaraja - A Yakkha. It was the custom for ancient kings at the time of the Kattika Festival to deck themselves in great array and, standing on the bank of a lake in the presence of Cittaraja, (meaning, probably, in front of his statue) to shoot arrows to the four quarters. J.ii.372.
2. Cittaraja - A Yakkha whom Pandukabhaya honoured by giving him a settlement at the lower end of the Abhaya tank. On festival days the Yakkha occupied a seat beside the king. The Mahavamsa (xi.4, 84, 87, 104) says that Citta raja was an incarnation of the herdsman Citta (7) who saved Panduka bhayas life, but it is more likely that the Cittaraja mentioned here is identical with Cittaraja (1), and that the festival refers to the Kattika festival.
Therav膩da is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).
