About Sujata

Sujata, also known as Sujātā, was a farmer's wife who is said to have offered Gautama Buddha a bowl of kheera, a milk-rice pudding, which ended his six years of asceticism. Due to his extremely thin appearance, she mistakenly thought he was a tree spirit fulfilling her wish for a child. This gesture provided him with the strength to follow the Middle Way, practice jhana, and achieve enlightenment, leading him to be recognized as the Buddha. The village of Bakraur near Bodh Gaya is believed to be her place of residence, and the Sujata Stupa was constructed in her honor there during the 2nd century BCE.
