Suvaṇṇapāli

Person

Fille de Girikaṇḍasiva et épouse de Paṇḍukābhaya, surnommée ainsi à cause des feuilles de banian qui se transformèrent en or dans ses mains lorsqu’elle lui servit un repas.

Daughter of Girikaṇḍasiva and wife of Paṇḍukābhaya.

Paṇḍukābhaya saw her on her way to her father’s field with food and made her entertain him and his followers.

Her name was Pāli, and she was given her soubriquet because the banyan leaves, on which she served the meal to Paṇḍukābhaya, turned into gold in her hands.

She had five brothers, all of whom were killed by Paṇḍukābhaya’s companion, Caṇḍa. Mhv.x.30 ff.
