<b> <c c="#a00149">Kukkuṭārāma</c> </b> <br>A park in Pāṭaliputta. It was evidently the residence of monks from very early times, probably, for some time, of the Buddha himself. The Mahāvagga <c c="#3b6bd3">Vin.i.300</c> mentions the names of several theras who lived there: Nilavāsi, Sānavāsi, Gopaka, Bhagu, Phalikasandana. The Saṃyutta Nikāya <c c="#3b6bd3">SN.v.15f.</c> <c c="#3b6bd3">SN.v.171f.</c> records several discussions which took place there between Ānanda and Bhadda. It may have been a favourite resort of Ānanda, for we find the householder Dasama of Aṭṭhakanāgara going there to enquire as to his whereabouts.<c c="#3b6bd3">AN.v.342</c> <c c="#3b6bd3">MN.i.349</c> At a later date it was the residence of Nārada who converted King Muṇḍa. <c c="#3b6bd3">AN.iii.57f.</c> <br> <br>Location: <iref href="https://www.google.com/maps/search/25.535, 85.20034">25.535, 85.20034</iref> (Precision: 3, Type: monastery)<br> </deftext>
