Alomā
Person
  • 波羅奈的一位貧苦婦人,身無長物,見佛陀托鉢經過,便以虔誠之心供養一些乾癟無鹽的肉乾;她常憶念此事,死後轉生忉利天宮,大目犍連在那裡聽聞了她的故事。

  • A poor woman of Bārāṇasī who, having nothing else to offer, gave the Buddha some dried, saltless meat with a devout heart as he passed on his alms round, and who, after constantly recalling her gift, was reborn in a mansion in Tāvatiṃsa, where Mahā-Moggallāna heard her story.
