PersonAlso known as Sattambaka
位於毘舍離西側的一處聖祠,相傳因波羅奈王吉吉的七位公主曾在此爭取修行成就而得名;原本奉祀某位神只,佛陀造訪毘舍離後,此處成為他的居所之一。
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.
