【迦蘭陀】《善見律》及《經律異相》云：「是山鼠之名也。時毘舍離王入山，於樹下眠，有大毒虵，欲出害王。於此樹下，有鼠下來，鳴令王覺。王感其恩，將一村食，供此山鼠，乃號此村為迦蘭陀。而此村中有一長者，居金錢四十億，王即賜於長者之號，由此村故，所以名為迦蘭陀長者也。」《三藏傳》云：「園主名迦蘭，先以此園施諸外道，後見佛又聞深法，恨不以園得施如來。時地神知其意，為現災怪，怖諸外道，逐之令出。告曰：『長者欲以園施佛，汝宜速去。』外道含怒而出，長者歡喜，建立精舍，躬往請佛。」

> 【Kalandaka】 The \*Samantapāsādikā\* and the \*Jinglü yixiang\* state: "It is the name of a mountain squirrel. At that time, the King of Vaiśālī entered the mountains and fell asleep under a tree. There was a large venomous snake about to come out and harm the king. Under this tree, a squirrel came down and chirped to awaken the king. The king was grateful for its kindness and provided the food of an entire village to offer to this mountain squirrel, subsequently naming this village Kalandaka. In this village there was an elder who possessed forty billion gold coins; the king conferred a title upon the elder, and because of this village, he was called Elder Kalandaka." The \*Biography of the Tripiṭaka Master\* states: "The owner of the grove was named Kalandaka. He had previously given this grove to non-Buddhists, but later, upon seeing the Buddha and hearing the profound Dharma, he regretted not having been able to offer the grove to the Tathāgata. At that time, the earth deity knew his intention and manifested disasters and prodigies to terrify the non-Buddhists and drive them out, declaring: 'The elder wishes to offer the grove to the Buddha; you must leave quickly.' The non-Buddhists departed in anger, and the elder, filled with joy, erected a vihāra and went in person to invite the Buddha."
