Mātugāmattabhāve ṭhitāya visākhāya viya aññissā buddhasāsane dhanapariccāgo nāma natthi, purisattabhāve ṭhitassa anāthapiṇḍikassa viya aññassāti. So hi catupaṇṇāsakoṭiyo vissajjetvā sāvatthiyā dakkhiṇabhāge anurādhapurassa mahāvihārasadise ṭhāne jetavanamahāvihāraṃ nāma kāresi. Visākhā sāvatthiyā pācīnabhāge uttaradeviyā vihārasadise ṭhāne pubbārāmaṃ nāma kāresi. Bhagavā imesaṃ dvinnaṃ kulānaṃ anukampāya sāvatthiṃ nissāya viharanto imesu dvīsu vihāresu nibaddhavāsaṃ vasi. Ekaṃ antovassaṃ jetavane vasati, ekaṃ pubbārāme. Tasmiṃ samaye pana bhagavā pubbārāme viharati. Tena vuttaṃ ‘‘pubbārāme migāramātupāsāde’’ti.

For another in the condition of a woman, there was no sacrifice of wealth in the Buddha's Dispensation like that of Visākhā; nor for another in the condition of a man, like that of Anāthapiṇḍika. For he, having expended fifty-four crores, had the Jetavana Great Monastery built on a site in the southern quarter of Sāvatthī resembling the Mahāvihāra of Anurādhapura. Visākhā had the Eastern Monastery built on a site in the eastern quarter of Sāvatthī resembling the monastery of Queen Uttarā. Out of compassion for these two families, the Blessed One, while dwelling dependent on Sāvatthī, lived in constant residence in these two monasteries. He would spend one rains retreat in Jetavana and one in the Eastern Monastery. At that time, however, the Blessed One was dwelling in the Eastern Monastery. Therefore it is said: “in the Eastern Monastery, in the mansion of Migāra's Mother.”
