v1.c10.101

1. Ekapuṇḍarīka.—A paribbājakārāma, the residence of Vacchagotta.¹ It was near the Kūṭāgārasālā in the Mahāvana of Vesāli. The Buddha went there to see Vacchagotta, and it was on this occasion that the Tevijja-Vacchagotta Sutta was preached.¹ Buddhaghosa says² that the place was so called because in it grew a solitary White Mango Tree (setambarukkha).
