Princess Jālinī
Also known as: Jālinī · Role: daughter of Viśvaṇtara and Madrī · First appears: Chapter XVI
In Chapter XVI, Princess Jālinī left the city for the forest with her father, Viśvaṇtara, her mother, Madrī, and her brother, Prince Kṛishṇa. One day in the penance-forest, Viśvaṇtara gave both children to a Brahman who had asked for them; when Madrī returned from the hermitage, he told her, “To him have I given the two children.”
Afterwards, the Brahman brought Jālinī and Prince Kṛishṇa back to the city and attempted to sell them. King Viśvāmitra, their elder-kin, summoned the children.
