Asandhimitra is Ahankara

Ashok's chief consort or queen Asandhimitra was the princess of Ujjain. So maybe Ahankara is portrayed as Asandhimitra. I guess

How do you know that ?? 😳

actually even i think that ahankara is asandhimitra. few months back i had read about a wiki article that states asandhimitra to be the princess of ujjain. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asandhimitra

Asandhimitra was the princess of Ujjain. She was the most lovable wife of Ashok for 30 years. Since Ahankara is shown of Ujjain and there love story is blooming I bet she is Asandhimitra.

Dear, Ahankara can never be Asandhimitra. It was devi who was princess of ujjain though scholars say she may have been only a normal merchan'ts daughter. So if ahankara marries asoka she can only be devi or no one. About Sakyakumari, when Vidudbha started slaughtering shakya people they ran into different places. It is stated that she was sakyakumari but it was just another buddhist modification to relate asoka and his wife with buddha.Edited by Roxelana - 8 years ago

One source states this, read it in a general book. The name of the source was not mentioned. It stated Vedisa shakyakumari was an ujjaini princess. 🤪 I also need to see more sources. I got loose info on shamak. Sadly the book has been lost now BY MY FRIEND. IDIOT.😡

No devi was a merchants' daughter not a princess of Ujjain. Ashok married her when he was the viceroy and left her when he was called back to patliputra. Then he got married to Asandhimitra who was considered to be more suitable for the prince unlike a merchants' daughter. I hope you understood well now😊
