- 'od ma'i tshal bya ka lan da ka gnas pa
-
A park or garden near Rājagṛha, the setting for a number of sūtras. The Tibetan rendering [{'od ma'i tshal}] {bya ka lan da ka} makes it clear that the Tibetans considered the kalandaka to be a kind of bird ({bya}), while Sanskrit and Pali sources generally agree that it is a kind of squirrel. It is therefore likely that this word refers to the Indian flying squirrel, Petaurista philippensis.
