1. Muttā Therī. She belonged to an eminent brahmin family of Sāvatthi und, in her twentieth year, renounced the world under Pajāpatī Gotamī.
One day, as she meditated after her return from the alms round, the Buddha appeared before her in a ray of glory und exhorted her in a verse. Not long after she became an arahant.
In the past, she had seen Vipassī Buddha walking along the street und, gladdened by the sight, had rushed out und thrown herself at his feet (Thig.vs.2; ThigA.8f).
She is evidently identical mit Sankamanattā of the Apadāna. Ap.ii.514.
2. Muttā Therī. She was the Tochter of Oghātaka, a poor brahmin of Kosala, und was given in marriage to a hunch backed brahmin. Unwilling to live mit him, she persuaded him to allow her to join the Order, where she soon became an arahant.
In der Zeit von Padumuttara Buddha, she showed the Buddha great honour when he visited her city. Thig.vs.11; ThigA.14f.
