21. \*\*Sumana.\*\*—A seṭṭhiputta of Rājagaha. Puṇṇa (Puṇṇasīha) (q.v.) was his servant, but, later, Puṇṇa, as the result of giving alms to Sāriputta, became rich and Sumana married his daughter, Uttarā. Sumana was an unbeliever, and Uttarā, wishing for leisure in which to practise her religion, obtained for him the services of the courtezan Sirimā, paying her with the money obtained from her father.¹
