On Yuan Chwang's Travels in India, 629–645 A.D. v1.c15.21

v1.c15.21

Our pilgrim and Fa-hsien, we have seen, found within Śrāvastī city a memorial of the place where this Finger-garland had been converted, and sanctified, and beatified. But this is against the general testimony of the Buddhist writings. According to these the murders were committed and the sudden conversion effected in the country beyond Śrāvastī³, or at a place very nearly ten yojanas from that city⁴, or in the Angutala country⁵, or in the land of Magadha.⁶
