India history and geography
: Ancient Buddhist Texts: Geography of Early Buddhism1) P膩峁璦lig膩ma (啶ぞ啶熰げ啶苦啶距ぎ) or P膩峁璦liputta an ancient capital of Magadha: one of the sixteen Mah膩janapadas of the Majjhimadesa (Middle Country) of ancient India, as recorded in the P膩li Buddhist texts (detailing the geography of ancient India as it was known in to Early Buddhism).鈥擳he Samantap膩s膩dik膩 tells us that the missionaries who visited various places to preach the dhamma of Asoka were almost all natives of Magadha. In Asoka鈥檚 time the capital of the Magadhan kingdom was P膩峁璦liputta (the older P膩峁璦lig膩ma where the ministers of Aj膩tasattu built a fort to repel the Vajjis). P膩li literature, however, contains numerous references to R膩jagaha, the ancient capital of Magadha. In the Samanta-P膩s膩dik膩 we find that Asoka鈥檚 income from the four gates of the city of P膩峁璦liputta was 400,000 办补丑腻辫补峁嘺蝉 daily, and in the Sabh膩 or Council he used to get 100,000 办补丑腻辫补峁嘺蝉 daily.
2) P膩峁璦lig膩ma (啶ぞ啶熰げ啶苦啶距ぎ) is the name of an ancient village situated between R膩jagaha and 碍耻蝉腻惫补迟颈 or 碍耻蝉墨苍腻谤腻: an ancient capital of Malla: one of the sixteen Mah膩janapadas of the Majjhimadesa (Middle Country) of ancient India, as recorded in the P膩li Buddhist texts (detailing the geography of ancient India as it was known in to Early Buddhism).鈥擨n the Mah膩parinibb膩na Suttanta we find an account of the Buddha鈥檚 journey from R膩jagaha to 碍耻蝉墨苍腻谤腻. We are also told of halting places, the list of which is given in order with important events, viz., P膩峁璦lig膩ma (where he crossed the Ganges).
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
