Ekapiṇḍadāyikā
Person一位阿罗汉,九十一劫前身为班度摩王之妻,曾供养一位比丘尼以求善生,此后多次转生为天界与人间的王后。
An Arahant. Ninety-one world-cycles ago she was the wife of King Bandhumā, of Bandhumatī. Wishing to do some good deed to ensure for herself a happy rebirth, she asked the king for his sanction, and fed a nun and gave her various gifts. Later she was born thirty times in Tāvatiṃsa as queen of the gods. She was the wife of twenty kings among men (Ap.ii.515 f).
She is probably identical with Mettā Therī (ThigA.36 f).
