Saptparni Cave, also referred to as Sapta parni guha (Saraiki) or sattapaṇṇi guhā (Pali), literally Seven-leaves-cave (cognate with sapta, sept), is a Buddhist cave site about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) southwest from Rajgir, Bihar, India. It is embedded in a hill. The Saptaparni Cave is important in the Buddhist tradition, because many believe it to be the site in which Buddha spent some time before his death, and where the first Buddhist council was held after Buddha died (paranirvana). It is here that a council of few hundred monks decided to appoint Ananda, Buddha's cousin, and Upali, who had accompanied the Buddha when he gave sermons in north India, to compose Buddha's teachings for the future generations. This was of special importance because the Buddha never wrote down his teachings. A

  • La Grotte de Saptparni, appelée aussi Grotte de Sattapani, est une grotte Bouddhiste située sur le Pic des Vautours (Gridhakuta) à environ 2 km au sud-ouest de Rajgir, Bihar, en Inde. La grotte de Saptaparni est importante dans la tradition Bouddhiste, parce que beaucoup croient que c'est le site dans lequel le Bouddha a passé un certain temps avant sa mort, et que c'est là où le premier concile Bouddhiste a été organisé après la mort de Bouddha (paranirvana).
