Person

コーサラ人のバラモン村で、入口の竹林にちなんで名付けられたとされ、仏陀がかつて滞在し『ヴェールドヴァーレッヤ・スッタ』(Veḷudvāreyya Sutta)を説いた場所。

A brahmin village of the Kosalans where the Buddha once stayed and taught the Veḷudvāreyya Sutta (S.v.352).

Buddhaghosa says (SA.iii.217) that the place was so called owing to the tradition of the presence of a bamboo thicket at the entrance to the village.
