Cittarāja
Cittarāja：1．Cittarāja.-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 Cittarāja，” （meaning，probably，in front of his statue） to shoot arrows to the four quarters．J.ii.372.
2．Cittarāja.-A Yakkha whom Pandukābhaya 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 Mahāvamsa （xi.4，84，87，104） says that Citta-rāja was an incarnation of the herdsman Citta （7） who saved Panduka-bhaya’s life，but it is more likely that the Cittarāja mentioned here is identical with Cittarāja （1），and that the festival refers to the Kattika festival.
