Pāsāṇadīpa.—A vihāra in Rohaṇa, built by Mahādāṭhika-Mahānāga, who gave to it a tract of land spreading for half a league round in honour of a sāmaṇera who lived there and had given the king a draught of water.¹ Silādāṭha heard the Elder of this vihāra preach the sacred texts, and, very pleased with him, built for him the Rohaṇa-vihāra.²
