A locality, probably a monastery in Ceylon, the residence of an arahant, Khuddaka Tissa (Kujjaka Tissa) (Mhv.Xxxii.53; J. vi.30). The place was five leagues from Anurādhapura and was visited by Saddhātissa (AA.i.384). A Mangana vihāra is mentioned among the religious buildings erected by Dhātusena (Cv.xxxviii.48). This was probably a restoration of the original. Updated: 15 September 2011 http://What-Buddha-Said.net/library/DPPN/ma/mangana.htm |
