Sumanā.—One of four women of Paṇṇakaṭanagara in Esikāraṭṭha. They saw a monk begging for alms, and one gave him a sheaf of indīvara-flowers, another a handful of blue lilies, another of lotuses, and the fourth some jasmine blossoms. They were all reborn in Tāvatiṃsa, their vimānas adjoining each other. Moggallāna saw them and learnt their story, which is recorded in the \*Vimānavatthu\* as the story of the \*Caturitthivimāna\*. The last-mentioned of the women, who offered \*sumana\*-flowers, was called Sumanā.¹ - [Previous: v2.c36.4425](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.4425) - [Next: v2.c36.4427](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.4427) - [Up: v2.c36](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.4426](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.4426) · Pramāṇa
