The number that comes from the phoneme-sound and the mora-sound in the name, as well as the number from the phonemes of the name according to the life-sound, should each be placed separately. Bringing the three numbers together into one and dividing by five, the remainder becomes the aggregate sound. (24) As for Devadatta, in the phoneme-sound diagram: *da* 5, *e* 4, *va* 1, *a* 1, *da* 5, *a* 1; the total of these is 24; divided by five, the remainder is 4; therefore, Devadatta's aggregate sound is *e*.
