.Sujata was a village woman who offered a bowl of milk-rice porridge to Siddhartha Gautama after his six years of extreme asceticism, believing him to be a tree spirit. This act of kindness, offered under the Bodhi Tree, restored his strength and marked a crucial turning point for him, solidifying his understanding of the Middle Way between indulgence and self-denial, and leading to his eventual enlightenment as the Buddha.
