Kakudha5
PlaceMahāmeghavana 林中位于大塔与 Thūpārāma 之间的一处小池,因本劫四佛曾亲临而被视为圣地,后由国王 Lañjatissa 填平。
A little pond in Mahāmeghavana between the site of the Mahā Thūpa and the Thūpārāma. The Mahā Thūpa was at the upper end of the pond, and the spot had been consecrated by the visit of the four Buddhas of the present world-cycle (Mhv.xv.53 ff). Lañjatissa appears to have filled up the pond at great expense, the land around having become waterlogged (Mhv.xxxiii.23 f; MT.611). The bund (Pāḷi) of the pond formed part of the boundary (sīmā) at Anurādhapura. Mbv.135 f.
