There lived a woman at Sāvatthī in India. She was known as ’Kisā-gotamī’ because of the leanness of her body (in Pali 'kisā’ means ’lean’ or 'haggard'). She gave birth to a son but he died as soon as he was able to walk. She then sought medicine to cure her dead child. This legend is a very famous story and a number of Buddhist texts (which were written in Pali and in Chinese translations) refer to Kisā-gotamī. All of these texts show some variation in content. However the basic story, which relates how Kisā-gotamī lost her child and attained enlightenment in her grief, might be true. As well, in later versions, more elaborate and fictional details were added. We are now going to compare these texts and make a lineage about this legend.
