Bhikkhudāsikā

Person

Also known as Bhikkhadāyikā

迦叶佛时代波罗奈王吉吉的七位女儿中的第四位,终身梵行两万年,并为僧众建造一座讲堂;一般认定她是跋陀·拘迦罗的前生,但另有典籍说她其实是大爱道·瞿昙弥。

The fourth of the seven daughters of Kikī, king of Bārāṇasī, in the time of Kassapa Buddha.

She lived in celibacy for twenty thousand years and erected a building for the use of the monks.

She was a previous birth of Bhaddā Kuṇḍalakesā. Ap.ii.561; ThigA.104; J.vi.481, however, says she was Gotamā (Pajāpatī Gotamī).
