   Did Yasodhara have another name?

   • Her most common name is Yasodhara, so we will use that name here, but perhaps she had another name, or perhaps there was more than one wife. All the options are on the table because we are not chained (nor can we be) to historical certainty. We are floating through the realms of the Buddhist imagination, where hard facts cannot follow.

   Is Yasodhara based on a true story?

   • Some of my telling of Yasodhara’s story is based on early Buddhist literature. Some of it is based on what we know as early Hindu literature. Some of it may be historical, but most of it is not. And some of it has come out of the playfulness of my mind.

Indeed, Yasodhara is so marginalized in some cases that she does not even receive a name. She is known simply as Rahulamata— Rahula’s mother.

   Did Siddhartha and Yasodhara have a relationship?

   • Siddhartha and Yasodhara are described as having been born at the same moment and in the same neighborhood, just a few doors away from each other. The heartbreak she experiences after his departure (which is described dramatically in a number of sources) was grounded in the fact that the Buddha departed alone, without inviting her to join him.
