Bhaddavatikā

Place

कोसंबी के निकट एक बाज़ार नगर, संभवतः भद्दवती के समान, जहाँ सागत थेर द्वारा निकटवर्ती अंबतित्थ में एक भयंकर नाग को वश में करने के बाद बुद्ध ठहरे थे।

A market town near Kosambī. The Buddha went there and was warned by cowherds and others not to approach Ambatittha as a fierce Nāga dwelt there.

Sāgata Thera, hearing this, went to Ambatittha and subdued the Nāga, afterwards rejoining the Buddha at Bhaddavatikā (Vin.iv.108 f; J.i.360 f).

The town is probably identical with Bhaddavatī (q.v.), and was in the Cetiya Country. Vin.iv.108.
