Mutiyaṅgana.—A cetiya in Ceylon, erected, according to tradition, by Devānampiyatissa,¹ on a spot consecrated by the Buddha on his third visit to Ceylon.² It was restored by Jeṭṭhatissa. It is, perhaps, the monastery attached to this cetiya that is mentioned in the Majjhima Commentary³ as Mutiṅgana. Maliyadeva Thera preached there the Cha-Cakka Sutta and sixty monks became arahants.
