Person

Un village brahmanique des Kosala, dont le nom viendrait d’un bosquet de bambous à son entrée, où le Bouddha séjourna un jour et enseigna le 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.
