Source: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper NamesThe daughter of a family in Rajagaha, which waited upon Maha Moggallana; was very generous and always gave away in alms the half of anything which she possessed. She was given in marriage to the son of a family of unbelievers. One day, seeing Moggallana begging for alms, she invited him and gave him some cakes which had been put away by her mother in law. When the latter heard of it she was greatly enraged, and struck the girl with a pestle.
The girl died and was born in Tavatimsa, her palace being called the Ularavimana. Later, Moggallana visited her there (Vv.p.24; VvA.120).
