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 KūṭÄgÄrasÄlÄ in VesÄli, but when the Licchavis went there to visit the Buddha, they moved to the Gosiá¹…gasÄlavana in search of quiet.
