Keḷāsa.—A mountain range in Himavā. It is one of the five ranges which stand round Aṇotatta and is of silver colour, two hundred leagues high, bent inwards “like a crow’s beak.”¹ It is sixty leagues in breadth, and Āḷavaka, on his way to his house, having heard to his great anger that the Buddha was there, placed his left foot on Manosilātala and his right on Keḷāsakūṭa. The touch of his foot sent pieces of the rock flying, and his shout “I am Āḷavaka” was heard throughout Jambudīpa.² - [Previous: v1.c12.3010](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12.3010) - [Next: v1.c12.3012](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12.3012) - [Up: v1.c12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12.3011](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c12.3011) · Pramāṇa
