1. Gosiṅgasālavanadāya.—A forest tract near Nādikā. Once, when Anuruddha, Nandiya and Kimbila were living there, they were visited by the Buddha, who came from Giñjakāvasatha. The result of the visit was the preaching of the Cūlagosiṅga Sutta (*q.v.*).¹ On another occasion, when the Buddha was staying there with many eminent monks, among whom were Sāriputta, Moggallāna and others, their conversation led to the preaching of the Mahāgosiṅga Sutta (*q.v.*).²
