[193] They often stayed in the Gridhrakuta mountain, Kalandaka Nivaaya and the bamboo forest. Once, when the Buddha was in the mango grove of Jivaka Kumarabhritya, Abhayakumar discussed the relationship between violence and non-violence with him.
When they were in the bamboo forest, Abhayakumar had a discussion with them. Sadhu Sakalodayi also had a conversation with the Buddha here. Once, the Buddha stayed in the Tapodaram where there were hot water springs. After the Buddha's Nirvana, Rajgriha began to decline. When the Chinese traveler Xuanzang came here, Rajgriha was not the same as before. Today, its residents are poor and destitute. Nowadays, Rajgriha is known as 'Rajgir'. Rajgir is located in the state of Bihar, east of Patna and northeast of Gaya. (11) Raivatak -
Parjitar identifies Raivatak with the Vardha mountain in the western part of Kathiawar. According to the Jnatasutra, there was a mountain called Raivatak in the north-east of Dwarka. The same is described in Antakritdasha. According to the Trishatishalaka Purushcharitra, near Dwarka, there is Raivatak Giri in the east, Malyaavan Shail in the south, Saumanas mountain in the west and Gandhamadana Giri in the north. From the perspective of the Mahabharata, Raivatak was near Kushasthali. According to the Vedic Harivansh Purana, the Yadavas left Mathura and went to Sindh and settled Dwarka near the sea, not too far or too close to the Raivatak mountain. The Agam literature gives a very natural description of the Raivatak mountain.
Lord Arishtanemi set out for his departure, he mounted the Shivikaratna surrounded by gods and humans and stayed on the Raivatak mountain. 11 Rajimati also went to the Raivatak mountain from Dwarka with restraint.
