1.134

[Uruvilvā-kāśyapa] The Wenju translates it as Papaya Forest, because he lived near this forest. Gushan says: 'This translates as Papaya Tumor; he had a tumor on his chest shaped like a papaya, hence the name. It is also said that he was born after prayers to the deity of this forest, and thus obtained the name.'
