A garden in Anuradhapura, through which the boundary of the Mahavihara passed (Mbv. p. 136).

A monastery was built there (probably later), which came to be called the Vijayarama vihara. Once, an arahant monk, teaching a kammatthana to two monks, spoke of samuddha instead of samudda. One of the monks pointed out his error, and was sent by the arahant to the Mahavihara with a message that he had paid more attention to letters than to their meaning. The monk went to the Mahavihara and later attained Nibbana, after solving various difficult questions in the presence of the assembly. MA.ii.827.
