Today, I am joined for a quiet sitting by my mother-in law.

Even Buddha had a mother-in-law. Her name was Pamitā, a sister of the Buddha’s father, King Suddhodana

(making Buddha’s wife his cousin … but that’s how they did things back then. Anyway, the Buddha wasn’t “Buddha” yet).

That must be her, somewhere in Shakyamuni’s wedding picture …
