Once when the Buddha was teaching the Dharma, Aniruddha was caught dozing and was reprimanded by the Buddha. Aniruddha wept tears of self-reproach and stopped sleeping since then. Every day, he either engaged in walking meditation or Dharma recitation. Eventually, he lost his eyesight. One day, he wanted to sew his clothes, but since he could not see, he was unable to thread the needle. He longed for someone to help him. After learning this, the Buddha visited him and helped him sew three robes in one day. The Buddha also taught him to practice the Illuminating Vajra Samadhi. Soon after, Aniruddha obtained the power of the divine eye and became the most renowned among the Buddha
