Ambasaṇḍā
Person王舍城以東的一座婆羅門村落,鄰近韋地耶迦山的因陀娑羅窟,佛陀在此說《帝釋所問經》時,帝釋率眾來訪使全村沐浴於光輝之中。
A brahmin village in Magadha to the east of Rājagaha.
To the north of the village was the Vediyaka mountain, in which was the Indasālaguhā, where the Sakkapañha Sutta was taught. On the occasion of the teaching, as Sakka with his retinue came to visit the Buddha, the village was bathed in radiance (D.ii.263 f).
The name arose from the fact that the village lay in the vicinity of many mango groves. DA.iii.697.
