In Sanskrit, it is Viśākhā, translated here as 'black deer'; she gained her designation from her child, being named 'Mother of Viśākhā'. Upāsikā means 'woman who attends closely'. 'Sikā' is a feminine suffix. Because their actions and conduct are pure and clean, they are all able to approach the assembly of bhikṣuṇīs and great arhatīs. The story of Migāra's Mother is explained extensively in the sūtras. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.57](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.1.57) - [Next: 1.59](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.1.59) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772~en-mt.1.58) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.1.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1772.1.58) · Pramāṇa
