Sundari
Sundari (Sanskrit: सुन्दरी Sundarī) or Sundari Nanda was the younger half-sister of Buddha and sister of Nanda. She was the child of King Suddhodana and Buddha's aunt Maha Pajapati Gotami. She, like other members of her family, became a Bhikkhuni (see also: Nanda (Buddhist nun)) and an Arahant, like her brother Nanda.
