Uttarā2

Person

Дочь именитого горожанина Саваттхи, вступившая в Орден после проповеди Патачары и достигшая освобождения благодаря решимости не покидать сидячей позы, пока не обретёт свободу.

She was the daughter of a clansman’s family in Sāvatthi. Having heard Paṭācārā teach, she entered the Order and became an Arahant.

The Therīgāthā contains seven verses uttered by her after becoming an Arahant, the result of her determination not to leave the sitting posture until she had won emancipation. Later she repeated these verses to Paṭācārā. Thig.vv.175-81; ThigA.161-2.
