In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
A grove near lake Tapoda (q.v.). In the grove was a monastery where the Buddha seems to have stayed on several occasions. It is said (D.ii.116) that on one such occasion the Buddha gave Ananda the chance of asking him to live for a whole kappa, but Ananda failed to make use of it.
Near the Tapodarama was the Tapodakandara. They were both far from Rajagaha, and monks would come from afar late at night and, in order to test Dabba Mallaputtas powers, ask him to provide lodgings for them (Vin.ii.76; iii.159).
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).
