Saṅgha5

Person

国王 Kākavaṇṇa Tissa 的一位大臣,其女 Kiñcisaṅghā 因慷慨供养比丘而被称为 Saṅghupatthāyikā。

A minister of Kākavaṇṇa Tissa; his brother was Cullasaṅgha and his daughter Kiñcisaṅghā. When the latter was taught cooking, the first meal she made was given to the monks. Thus she came to be called Saṅghupatthāyikā. Later, she was abandoned by her parents at Nigrodhasālakhanda, but she was rescued by Sakka in the guise of a youth. She gave alms to a monk of Cittalapabbata when she had been starving for seven days, and also gave her only garment, herself wearing leaves. The king heard of this from the deity of his parasol, and, having sent for her, gave her in marriage to one of his sons. Ras.ii.45 f.

Saṅgha Sutta.– The Buddha tells Upāli of ten things that disunite the Order and their ten opposites, which unite it. A.v.73.
