釋迦方志 2.24

2.24

西行二十餘里塔者。是諸學無學大眾法集五藏處。因謂大眾部焉　竹園北二百餘步迦蘭池。佛多說法今枯涸也　池西北三里許塔。育王立高六十尺。石柱五十餘尺。上刻立塔事。柱東北不遠至曷羅闍姞利呬城（即新王舍城。本寒林地。闍王移都所築。當茅城東北四里）外郭已壞。內城周二十餘里。面有一門。無憂王更都香華城。將此施婆羅門。今住者減千家　宮城西南二小寺。佛昔說法處。諸國客僧多來投止　次西北塔。殊底迦長者故里（即樹提伽也此言星曆）王城南門外道左塔者。佛說法度羅怙羅處。

The stupa more than twenty li to the west marks the place where the Great Assembly of those in training and beyond training compiled the Five Piṭakas of the Dharma; hence it is called the Mahāsāṃghika [school]. More than two hundred paces north of the Bamboo Grove is the Karaṇḍa Pool, where the Buddha often preached the Dharma; it is now dried up. About three li northwest of the pool is a stupa built by King Aśoka, sixty feet high, with a stone pillar over fifty feet tall on which the circumstances of erecting the stupa are inscribed. Not far northeast of the pillar one reaches the city of Rājagṛha (that is, the new Rājagṛha; originally a burial ground, it was built when King Ajātaśatru moved the capital; it lies four li northeast of Kuśāgārapura). Its outer wall is already ruined, but the inner city is over twenty li in circumference, with one gate on each side. King Aśoka later relocated his capital to Kusumapura and bestowed this city upon the brahmins; fewer than a thousand families dwell there now. Southwest of the palace city are two small monasteries, places where the Buddha formerly preached the Dharma; visiting monks from various countries often come here to lodge. Next to the northwest is a stupa at the old village of the elder Jyotiṣka (also called Zhutijia, which means 'astrology'). The stupa to the left of the road outside the south gate of the royal city is where the Buddha preached the Dharma and converted Rāhula.
