Kundalā

Daughter of the king of Devaputta.

Once she was a bitch in Kakubandhakandara and a sāmanera, Tissa, had given her a little food. Later, when Tissa was on his way to the Bodhi-tree (in Gayā) she saw him, and, remembering her past existence, invited him to the palace and entertained him. Later she built a vihāra for him, where he attained arahantship. Ras.i.103f.
