Sattamba
PersonAlso known as Sattambaka
位于毘舍离西侧的一处圣祠,相传因波罗奈王吉吉的七位公主曾在此争取修行成就而得名;原本奉祀某位神只,佛陀造访毘舍离后,此处成为他的居所之一。
A shrine near Vesāli. (D.ii.102; Ud.vi.1; S.v.259; A.iv.309, etc.). It was so called because, in the past, seven princesses, daughters of Kiki, king of Bārāṇasī, left Rājagaha and fought for attainment at that spot. It was originally dedicated to some deity, but after the Buddha’s visit to Vesāli, it became a place of residence for him (UdA.323, etc.) It was to the west of Vesāli. D.iii.9.
