English: Prithvi (Pṛthivī Devī) is the Sanskrit word meaning "Earth"(World). This category is for the Element Earth of the Mahabhutas.
In Buddhist texts and visual representations, Pṛthvī is often called Sthāvarā and is described as both protecting Gautama Buddha and as being his witness for his enlightenment. Prithvi appears in Early Buddhism in the Pāli Canon, dispelling the temptation figure Mara by attesting to Gautama Buddha's worthiness to attain enlightenment

Français : Pṛthivī Devī apparaît aussi dans le bouddhisme primitif. Dans le canon pâli, elle sert de témoin au Bouddha tenté par le démon Māra lorsqu'il atteste la terre (bhûmisparshamudra) de ses mérites passés qui le rendent digne d'atteindre l'illumination.
