A mountain in Avantí, near Kuraraghara.
It was a favourite spot of Mahá Kaccána, and we are told of several discussions having taken place there (E.g., S.iii.9ff.; S.iv.115f.; A.v.46f). Mahá Kaccána's attendant was, at that time, Sona Kutikanna, yet a layman. He later became a monk, and the ten monks necessary for his ordination were found with great difficulty. Vin.i.194f.; Ud.v.6; DhA.iv.101f.
