Who among the following was Buddha's foster mother?
Purna
Gajalakshmi
Maya
Mahapajapati Gotami
The Buddha was born into a noble family of the kshatriya varna in Lumbini, Nepal in 563 BCE. He was called Siddhartha Gautama in his childhood. His father was king Suddhodana, leader of the Shakya clan in what was the growing state of Kosala, and his mother was queen Maya Devi. According to Buddhist legend, the baby exhibited the marks of a great man. A prophecy indicated that if the child stayed at home he was destined to become a world ruler. If the child left home, however, he would become a universal spiritual leader. To make sure the boy would be a great king and world ruler, his father isolated him in his palace and he was raised by his mother's younger sister, Maha Pajapati, after his mother died just seven days after childbirth.
Separated from the world, he later married Yashodhara (Yasodhara was the daughter of King Suppabuddha and Amita), and together they had one child, a son, Rahula. Both Yashodhara and Rahul later became disciples of Buddha
