The story was told in reference to a girl of Sāvatthi who belonged to a family devoted to the two Chief Disciples. She married an unbeliever, but was allowed to practise her own religion unmolested. She finally persuaded her husband to listen to a sermon by Sāriputta, and both husband and wife became sotāpannas. Later, they joined the Order and became arahants.
