Accordingly, 鈥渟ituated in the middle part of Jamb奴dv墨pa, like the navel of the continents, is Videha办峁迟谤补 provided with sorrow-bliss. In it, on the north bank of the river S墨t腻 there is a province named Vatsa possessing extensive wealth. Endowed with wonderful beauty, it looked like a piece of heaven that had fallen to earth. With villages upon villages and cities upon cities populating it, there was empty space only in the sky, if at all. There was a distinction between cities and villages if made by the king鈥檚 authority, but they could not be distinguished from each other on the basis of wealth鈥�.
2) Vatsa (啶掂い啷嵿じ) (distinguished by the city Kau艣腻mb墨pur墨) refers to one of the 25陆 countries of the 碍峁迟谤腻谤测补蝉, situated in the 鈥渕iddle world鈥� (madhyaloka), according to chapter 2.3.鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淚n these 35 zones on this side of M腻nu峁ttara and in the Antaradv墨pas, men arise by birth; [...]. From the division into 膧ryas and Mlecchas they are two-fold. The 膧ryas have sub-divisions [e.g., 办峁迟谤补 (country)]. [...] The 办峁迟谤腻谤测补蝉 are born in the 15 Karmabhumis. Here in Bharata they have 25陆 places of origin (e.g., Vatsa), distinguishable by cities (e.g., Kau艣腻mb墨pur墨) in which the birth of T墨rthak峁泃s, Cakrabh峁泃s, K峁涐梗峁嘺s, and Balas takes place鈥�.
Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, 鈥榮elf-reliance鈥�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
India history and geography
: Ancient Buddhist Texts: Geography of Early BuddhismVatsa (啶掂い啷嵿じ) or 痴补峁僺补 refers to one of the sixteen Mah腻janapadas of the Majjhimadesa (Middle Country) of ancient India, as recorded in the P腻li Buddhist texts (detailing the geography of ancient India as it was known in to Early Buddhism).鈥擳he kingdom of the 痴补峁僺补s or Vatsas is mentioned in the A峁単uttara Nik腻ya as one of the sixteen great countries of India. The capital of the country was Kau蝉腻mb墨 (Kosamb墨) identical with modern Kosam near Allahabad.
The Bhagga (i.e. Bharga) state of Su峁僺um腻ragiri was a dependency of the Vatsa kingdom. This is confirmed by the 惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补 and the Hariva峁兣沘 which testify to the close association of these two realms. In the D墨gha Nik腻ya we find that Kosamb墨 was suggested as one of the great cities where the Blessed one should attain Mah腻parinibb腻na.
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.
