Question

D.A ___________ is a place where Buddhist monks took shelter.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Viharas is the place where Buddhists monks took shelter

Explanation:

All Buddhist and Jain monks went from place to place spreading their religion, but during the rainy season they stayed in one place for a few months.

Their supporters built shelters for them in gardens, and many monks lived in natural caves.

Later, many monks and nuns realised that they needed permanent shelters and so monasteries known as viharas were built out of either rock or wood.

The land on which a vihara was built was usually donated by a rich landlord or a king.

The local people came with clothes, food, and other gifts to learn from the monks.
