The correct term is Magadha \[摩揭陀\]. Translated here, it is called the Country of Superior Excellence, or the Country of Non-Harm. One explanation states that Maghā is the name of a nakṣatra, translated here as "not bad", presiding over the twelfth solar day, and dha means "place"; hence it is named "the Country of the Not-Bad Place", also called "the Country of the Nakṣatra's Place". 揭 is \[pronounced\] jie \[qu + ye fan\]). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 20.142](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20.142) - [Next: 20.144](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20.144) - [Up: 20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.20.143) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [華嚴經探玄記](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1733.2.10) — Classical Chinese - [仁王經疏](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1708.1.40) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20.143](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.20.143) · Pramāṇa
