"Kaushik (also spelt Koushik) is a gotra and also surname of Brahmins mainly found in India.
"The members of the Kaushik gotra claim descent from the legendary sage Vishvamitra{waiþ~þa mait~ta. ra.þé.}, who was also known as Kaushika. The name "Kaushika" literally means "from Kush". British writer John Garrett (1871) believed that Kush here refers to the name of a place in Central Asia. [1]

Every year, every Buddhist household is invited to draw Mahadoat (from:
Mahāduggata)
{sa-ré:tän} lots to receive the gift of religious offering. See the story of
Mahāduggata below:
Dict. of Pali proper names, by Gunapala Piyasena Malalasekera (1899-1973), vol 2: N-H, first publication in UK1937, book-preview. p504. - https://books.google.ca/books... 170321

Mahāduggata - A very poor man of Benares in the time of Kassapa Buddha
{kæþ~þa.pa. Bu.ra:}.
[UKT ¶]
UKT 200304: Since we are now in the Gautama Buddha's Sasana शासन «śāsana», the time-line must be thousands of years before the present.] [UKT ¶]. As such the story has no historical merit. If you are a scientist and were to analyze Buddhist stories in this way, you'll become a Nibbanic Buddhist, and will strive to gain insight into Nirvana in the present life-time.
The citizens of Benares once invited the Buddha and his monks and went about asking people to help in their entertainment. In spite of their extreme poverty, Mahāduggata and his wife undertook to look after one monk; they both worked hard to earn the necessary money and then prepared a simple meal. Sakka knowing what was to come, came in the guise of a labourer to help them. When the time came for the meal it was found that in allotting the monks to their several hosts, Mahāduggata's house had been overlooked. Mahāduggata wrung his hands and burst into tears, but somebody pointed out to him that nobody was yet entertaining the Buddha. He, therefore, went to the vihāra and invited the Buddha, who accepted the invitation, while princes and nobles waited outside wishing to conduct him to their own palaces. The Buddha ate the food prepared by Mahāduggata and Sakka returned thanks. That same day, by the power of Sakka, the seven kinds of jewels fell from the sky and filled Mahāduggata's house, and when it was reported to the king that he was the wealthiest man in the city, he was appointed Treasurer. Mahāduggata built a new house and discovered many hidden treasures while digging the foundations. With the money from these he entertained the Buddha and his monks for seven days, and, after death, was reborn in heaven. He is identified with Paṇḍitasāmaṇera. Dha. ii. 127-38.

UKT 180101: Based on:
http://www.palikanon.com/english/pali_names/ku/kusa.htm 180101
"Kusa Jātaka (No.531): The story is told with reference to a backsliding
monk who became love-sick and was taken to Gautama Buddha. (J.v.278ff; the
story is also given in Mtu.iii.1ff; ii.441f; the details differ, as do some
of the names, from the Pāli version)." "Kusa consents to marry only on
condition that a princess can be obtained exactly like an image which he
himself has fashioned. Pabhāvatī, princess of
Sāgala,
was found and was married to Kusa. ... When the wife discovered how ugly he
was, she deserted him and returned to her father. Kusa followed her, and
under a variety of menial disguises, including that of a cook, tries, but in
vain, to win her affection. At length
Sakka,
the Buddhist King of Dévas, intervened by inviting seven rival kings to take
her. She is saved by the despised husband who was mightier in arms than all
the suitors, and she returned to her husband." The story was sung as a
popular song which I as a child have learned, and which I still sometimes
sing in bits.
