アーラヴィー（Āḷavī）の比丘たちに与えられた名で、その過度な建築活動と伐採が樹木の精霊と地元の民衆をひどく怒らせたため、仏陀が彼らを制止してウラガ経（Uraga Sutta）を説かねばならなかった。

A name given to the monks of Āḷavī, whose over-zealous building activities and tree-felling once so provoked a tree-spirit and the local populace that the Buddha had to restrain them and teach the Uraga Sutta.
