7.19
[Caitya] Also called nandi, zhidi, zhidi, or zhituo; here it is translated as "place worthy of offerings," or translated as "place of destroying evil and giving rise to good." The Za xin lun says: "One with śarīra is called a stupa; one without śarīra is called a caitya." The Wenju says: "A caitya is one without bodily bones. The Āgamas elucidate the four caityas, meaning the place where the Buddha was born, the place where he attained the Way, the place where he turned the wheel of the Dharma, and the place where he entered extinction."
