Buddha Śākyamuni’s aunt, and the daughter of Śākya Suprabuddha. She and her sister Mahāmāyā (Buddha Śākyamuni’s mother) both married King Śuddhodana of Kapilavastu. Somewhat confusingly, in other stories she is identified as Mahāprajāpatī Gautamī, q.v., while Māyā is often used as a short form of the name of the Buddha’s mother Mahāmāyā.
