Gharaṇī


A woman lay-disciple of the Buddha. She had attained the Third Fruit of the Path and when the Buddha was about to perform the Twin Miracle, she offered to perform a miracle herself — to transform the earth into water and dive about in it like a water-bird. DhA.iii.209.

There was a Gharaṇī StÅ«pa near SuppÄraka (Divy.47).
