Cīrā
Person七歳の沙弥尼で阿羅漢であった者で、仏陀が双神変を行う必要がないよう、Sineru と世界の山々を運んでくるという奇跡を自ら行うと申し出た
A seven-year-old novice, an Arahant who offered to perform a miracle herself, so that the Buddha might be saved the trouble of performing the Twin Miracle. She offered to fetch Sineru, the Cakkavāḷapabbata, and Himavā, and to soar over their tops like a wild goose (DhA.iii.211).
She is probably identical with the Bhikkhuṇī mentioned in the Saṃyuttanikāya (S.i.213) as having won the praise of a yakkha.
