Badaratittha
Badara Tittha Vihara (also Badaratittha, Padaratittha ) is the name of an historic Theravada Buddhist "vihara" in what is now the modern Tamil Nadu state of India. In the Gandhavamsa. Badaratittha is known to us from the "Gandhavamsa" (or "Cullagandhavamsa"), a 17th-century "Pali" work by "Nandapañña" that recounts post-canonical Pali books written in Burma and Ceylon. The "Gandhavamsa" states that Badara Tittha Vihara was the dwelling place of "Ācariya Dhammapāla", an early Theravadin commentator from Kanchipuram.
