Cetiyā
PersonMột nữ dạ-xoa của núi Dhūmarakkha mà Paṇḍukābhaya bắt được sau một cuộc rượt đuổi dài trong đó bà hóa thành ngựa cái, rồi cưỡi bà xông vào trận chiến nơi bà đã giúp đỡ ông.
A yakkhinī who lived in the Dhūmarakkha mountain near Tumbariyaṅgana.
Paṇḍukābhaya, hearing of her, tried to capture her, but succeeded only after a very long and strenuous chase, in which she assumed the form of a mare. He rode her into battle, where she helped him in various ways (Mhv.x.53 ff). The Mahāvaṃsa-Ṭīkā, Vamsatthappakāsinī, (p.289) says she was the wife of the yakkha Jutindhara, who fell in the battle of Sirīsavatthu.
