There exists a Commentary on the Cariyāpiṭaka which is ascribed to Dhammapāla and which forms a part of the Paramathadīpanī.² According to the Commentary,³ the Cariyāpiṭaka was preached by the Buddha at the Nigrodhārāma, after the conclusion of the Buddhavamsa and at the request of Sāriputta. It was preached by Mahinda at the Naṇḍanavana in Anurādhapura, soon after his arrival in Ceylon.⁴
