Uruvilvākāśyapa (उरुविल्वाकाश्यप) or Urubilvākāśyapa is the name of a famous monk disciple of the Buddha. He was a Jaṭila from Urubilvā (or Uruvilvā) who was converted by the Buddha, as mentioned in the 2nd century ''Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra'' chapter 36. The same year as his enlightenment, the Buddha went to Urubilvā to convert the thousand Jaṭilas, fire worshippers, led by Uruvilvākāśyapa, a venerable old man aged one hundred and twenty years, and his two brothers, Nadī- and Gatākāśyapa. To impress these heretics, the Buddha performed no less than eighteen miracles, beginning with the taming of a venomous snake.

The Buddha agreed and the newly converted threw their garments of hide and their religious objects into the river in order to put on the Dharma robe.
