In the Udāna Commentary¹⁰ he is called Vajjirājā. The Milinda-pañha¹¹ tells a story of a woman called Gopāla-mātā, who became a queen of Udena. She was the daughter of peasant-folk, and, being poor, she sold her hair for eight pennies, with which she gave a meal to Mahā Kaccāna and his seven companions. That very day she became Udena’s queen. - [Previous: v1.c9.733](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9.733) - [Next: v1.c9.735](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9.735) - [Up: v1.c9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9) ## Cites (2) - [Jātakatthavaṇṇanā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.khuddaka.jataka!jatakatthavannana*cst.15.1.p1) — Pāli - [Divyāvadāna](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.avadana.avadanasamgraha.divyavadana) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9.734](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c9.734) · Pramāṇa
