Masakkasāra
Other実際にはシネル山を指し、その天界が建てられた不動の山を意味する、サッカの住処タートゥムサの別名。
A name given to Tāvatiṃsa, the abode of Vāsava (Sakka) (J.v.167; vi. 272, 289, 400; VvA.350).
The scholiast explains (J.v.168; vi. 272) that Masakkasāra is really the name of Mount Sineru, so called because it is immovable (Masakkasāro vuccati osakkana parisakkanābhāvena ghanasāratāya ca Sinerupabbarājā), and Tāvatiṃsa came to be known as Masakkasāra because it was built on Sineru.
