Mention is made¹ of the Buddha having bathed there. It was evidently extensive, for Pasenadi's state elephant Seta also bathed there to the accompaniment of music. The Commentary calls it² a nadī. The bathing-place was probably near the Pubbakoṭṭhaka (? Eastern Gatehouse) of Sāvatthi, where the Buddha is said to have stayed.³ Public bathing-places were generally near the city gates. - [Previous: v2.c27.2132](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27.2132) - [Next: v2.c27.2134](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27.2134) - [Up: v2.c27](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27.2133](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c27.2133) · Pramāṇa
