Sujātā8
PersonLa plus jeune sœur de Visākhā, mariée au fils d’Anāthapiṇḍika, dont le traitement hautain et obstiné envers les serviteurs poussa le Bouddha à lui enseigner les sept sortes d’épouses, après quoi elle réforma sa conduite.
Youngest sister of Visākhā. She was the daughter of Dhanañjaya-seṭṭhi and was given in marriage to Anāthapiṇḍika’s son. She was very haughty and obstinate. One day, when the Buddha visited Anāthapiṇḍika’s house, she was scolding the servants. The Buddha stopped what he was saying, and, asking what the noise was, sent for her and described to her the seven kinds of wives that were in the world. She listened to the discourse and altered her ways (A.iv.91 f; J.ii.347 f).
The Sujāta Jātaka (No.269) was taught to her.
