UpacÄla
Son of UpacÄlÄ and nephew of SÄriputta and Khadiravaniya-Revata. He was ordained by Revata (Thag.v, 43; ThagA.i.110). He is mentioned in the Aá¹…guttara NikÄya (v.133) in a list of very eminent disciples, together with CÄla, Kakkata, Kalimbha, Nikata and Katissaha. They lived in the KÅ«á¹ÄgÄrasÄlÄ in VesÄli, but when the Licchavis went there to visit the Buddha, they moved to the Gosiá¹…gasÄlavana in search of quiet.
