The name given to the riddle in which Amará tells Mahosadha the way to her house: "Yena sattu bilangá ca dvigunapaláso ca pupphito, yenádámi tena vadámi yena nádámi na tena vadámi esa maggo yavamajjhakassa etam channapatham vijánáhíti."

The scholiast explains it thus: entering the village you will see a cake shop and then a gruel shop; further on an ebony tree in flower, take a path to the right.

This riddle referred to in J.i.425 as the Amarádevipańha, is, however, called Channapathapańha in the Ummagga Játaka itself, where it actually occurs in the story. J.vi.365-6.
