Moggallana

Moggallana was foremost among the Buddha's disciples in psychic powers (iddhi). He and Sariputta were childhood friends who both renounced household life to seek liberation. He attained full enlightenment (Arahantship) within one week of becoming a monk — one of the fastest recorded awakenings. He was known for his ability to travel to celestial and hellish realms and report their nature to the Sangha.

Moggallana was murdered by hired assassins (a story recorded in the Pali texts) at a great age, just weeks before Sariputta's death. Both chief disciples thus predeceased the Buddha, causing great sorrow in the Sangha.
