  Two merchants, Tapussa and Bliallika, travelling past, saw the Enlightened One, and respectfully approached him, offering rice-cakes and honey. This was the first food the Buddha accpeted after attaining Buddhahood. The Buddha pointed out the way of salvation, to them and they in turn took refuge and were taught about the Dharmamaking them the first followers as lay disciples.
