Mahapajapati Gotami
In Buddhist tradition, Mahāpajāpatī Gotamī (Pali; Sanskrit Mahāprajāpatī Gautamī) was the first woman to request the Ordination of women in Buddhism, which she did from Gautama Buddha directly, and the first bhikkhuni (Buddhist nun).〔(The Life of the Buddha: (Part Two) The Order of Nuns )〕
Tradition says Maya and Mahāpajāpatī Gotamī were Koliyan princess and sisters of Suppabuddha. Mahāpajāpatī was both the Buddha's maternal aunt and adoptive mother,〔 raising him after her sister Maya, the Buddha's birth mother, died.〔(Maha Pajapati Gotami )〕 Mahāpajāpatī died at the age of 120.〔Dhammadharini: (Going Forth & Going Out ~ the Parinibbana of Mahapajapati Gotami - Dhammadharini )〕
"The story of the parinirvāṇa of Mahāprajāpatī Gautamī and her five hundred bhikṣuṇī companions was popular and widely transmitted and existed in multiple versions." It is recorded in the various surviving Vinaya traditions, including the Pāli Canon and Sarvastivada and Mulasarvastivada versions.〔
==Early life==
An eminent Therī, Mahāpajāpatī was born at Devadaha in the family of Suppabuddha as the younger sister of Māyā.〔(Relatives and Disciples of the Buddha (archived 2011) )〕 Mahāpajāpatī was so called because, at her birth, augurs prophesied〔(Women of the Buddhist scriptures: Mahapajapati Gotami )〕 that she would have a large following.〔 Both sisters married King Suddhodhana,〔 leader of the Śākya. When Māyā died seven days after the birth of the Buddha, Pajāpati looked after the Buddha and nursed him.〔 She raised the Buddha and had her own children, Siddhartha's half-brother Nanda and half-sister Nanda.
