維邪 (upper: *yut* + *swij* [wéi], lower: *yæ* + *tsya* [yé]): In the older pronunciations of Sanskrit, it was pronounced thus, hence it was called Biyali (毘邪離) or named Bisheli (毘舍離), both of which are corruptions. The correct form is the city of Vaiśālī (鞞奢𱑅夜城). It is located within the territory of Eastern India, north of the Gaṅgā River, or some say within Central India).
