Uttarā2
Person舍衛城一位良家女子出身的阿羅漢比丘尼，聞鉢吒左羅說法而出家，以不證悟誓不起座的決心而得解脫。
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.
