2. Sundari Therī.—She was born in Benares as the daughter of the brahmin Sujāta (see Sujāta 9). When her father joined the Order at Mithilā and sent his charioteer home, Sundari, with her mother's consent, gave all away and joined the Order, attaining arahantship in due course. Then one day, with the leave of her teacher, she left Benares, accompanied by a large number of nuns, and, visiting the Buddha at Sāvatthi, uttered her "lion's roar."
