Cittalapabbata untranslated

Cittalapabbata, Cittalakūṭa. A mountain in Rohaṇa on which Kākavaṇṇatissa built a vihāra (Mhv.xxii.23) and Vasabha ten Thūpas (Mhv.xxxv.81). Dāṭhopatissa gave to the vihāra the village of Gonnaviṭṭhi (Cv.xlv.59). The mountain is described as being healthy (utusappāya) (Mhv­ṭ.552), and sometimes there lived on it as many as twelve thousand monks (Vibh­a.445; Mhv.xxiv.9). Attached to the vihāra was the Niṅkaponnapadhānaghara (Vibh­a.489) and the Koṭagerukapāsāda – the residence of Bhāgineyya Saṅgharakkhita (Mhv­ṭ.552) – and also, probably, a nunnery (see Vibh­a.498). The Elders Mahā Nāga and Cūḷa Nāga lived at Cittalapabbata for three years (SN­a.ii.125). The Commentaries contain several stories connected with the mountain (e.g., Vibh­a.264, 498; Dhs­a.351, 399; AN­a.i.386; MN­a.i.18, 66, 150, 223, 351, 399). Near by (AN­a.i.386) was the village of Kālumbara and the bathing place of Kuruvakatittha (MN­a.ii.1024). It was evidently a very important monastic centre in Ceylon, and is mentioned on a par with Abhayagiri and Cetiyapabbata (DN­a.ii.478). Cittalapabbata is sometimes called Cittalakūṭa, e.g., Mhv.xxxv.81.
