Suriyavaccasā
PersonMột thiếu nữ Gandhabba, con gái của Timbaru, được Pañcasikha yêu mến, người đã chiếm được trái tim nàng bằng những bài tình ca ca ngợi Đức Phật và trở thành vợ chàng; tên thật của nàng là Bhaddā, còn ‘Suriyavaccasā’ chỉ vẻ đẹp rạng rỡ của nàng.
A Gandhabba maiden, daughter of Timbaru.
When she went to dance before Sakka, Pañcasikha saw her and fell in love with her, but she favoured Mātali’s son Sikhandi.
Later she heard Pañcasikha sing love-songs in her honour, which also contained references to his deep attachment to the Buddha. This influenced her choice, and she became his wife (D.ii.258, 268 f).
Her personal name was Bhaddā. She was called Suriyavaccasā because of her bodily beauty (sarīrasampattiyā). DA.iii.704.
