Veḷudvāra
Person拘薩羅國的一個婆羅門村落,據說因村口有竹叢而得名,佛陀曾駐錫於此並宣說《竹門經》(Veḷudvāreyya Sutta)。
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.
