Girigāma

A village in Sri Lanka. A young novice named Tissa of Pañcaggalalena, travelling through the air, saw the daughter of the smith of Girigāma bathing in a lotus pond with five of her friends, and heard them singing aloud. He was so fascinated by her that he lost his power of flight. SNA.i.70; ApA.i.128.
