Sujata
Milkmaid
Sujata, also Sujātā, or Nandabala , was a farmer's wife, who is said to have fed Gautama Buddha a bowl of kheer, a milk-rice pudding, ending his six years of asceticism. Such was his emaciated appearance that she wrongly believed him to be a tree-spirit nature deity that had granted her wish of having a child.
Sujata is read about 93 times a day, in 11 languages.
