: Pali Kanon: Pali Proper Names1. Ucchu vimana, also called Ucchudayika vimana. A girl, who belonged to a pious family in Rajagaha, used to give to holy men half of anything she received. She was given in marriage to a family of unbelievers. One day she saw Moggallana going about for alms, and having invited him to her house she gave him a piece of sugar cane which had been set aside for her mother in law, whose approval of the gift she hoped to win. But when the mother in law heard of what had happened in her absence, she flew into a rage and struck the girl with a stool. The girl died immediately and was born in Tavatimsa.
Later she visited Moggallana and revealed her identity. Her palace came to be called Ucchudayika vimana. Vv.24f; VvA.124ff.
