Cāla
Person一位德高望重的长老，Cālā 之子、舍利弗之外甥，由 Khadiravaniya Revata 为其剃度，曾因离车族频繁来访造成干扰而离开尖顶讲堂。
Son of Cālā and nephew of Sāriputta. He was ordained by Khadiravaniya-Revata (Thag.vs.42; ThigA.i.110).
He is mentioned as living at the Kūṭāgārasālā, which place he left when the Licchavis caused disturbance by their visits to the Buddha (A.v.133). In this context he is spoken of as a very eminent elder and was, therefore, evidently an Arahant.
