Sažetak
The primary aim of the paper is to present Yaśodharā as depicted in the Mahāvastu, a voluminous work belonging to the Lokottoravādins. Even though the main goal of the authors or compilers of the Mahāvastu was to present the biography of Gautama Buddha, the number of references to Yaśodharā’s last and previous existences suggests that they were also considerably interested in her character and her role in the overall biography of her husband. In the Mahāvastu, she is presented as a vivid character encompassing diverse conceptions of (an ideal) woman and womanhood. The multidimensionality of Yaśodharā’s character is interpretable as stemming from her contradictory roles in the biography of Gautama Buddha.
