Sākēta (Sanskrit: साकेत, romanized: Sākēta) is a Sanskrit appellation of the Indian city of Ayodhya.[1] Sākēta can be alternatively used for the abode of Vaikuṇṭha in Hindu epics, where liberated souls dwell.[2] "Sākēta", the name of the Ayodhya Kingdom was later widespread by Buddhist travellers and far away traders for the collective name of the region's under this Kingdom. Overall, according to early chronicles found in Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Marathi, Odia, Sanskrit literature and Ramayana and Ramacharitamanasa the city bears the name of Ayodhya Kingdom, not Sākēta.

In Buddhism, the place is thought to be where the sons of Okkaka founded a city.[citation needed]
Ayodhya signifies a great importance in the Buddhist literature. It is referred to as Saketa in traditional Buddhist literature.
