"Venerable Sir! When a jīva is in the womb, what nourishment does it consume?"
"Gautama! Whatever diverse essences of food its mother consumes, by a portion thereof it consumes vitality."
"Venerable Sir! Does a jīva residing in the womb have feces, urine, phlegm, nasal mucus, vomit, or bile?"
"That is not so."
"Why is that so?"
"Gautama! Whatever nourishment a jīva consumes when in the womb, it builds up [into parts of the body], namely: into the sense organ of hearing, the sense organ of sight, the sense organ of smell, the sense organ of taste, the sense organ of touch, and into bones, bone-marrow, hair of the head, beard, body hair, and nails. For that reason, Gautama, it is said: A jīva residing in the womb has no feces, urine, phlegm, nasal mucus, vomit, or bile."
"Venerable Sir! Is a jīva residing in the womb able to consume mouthfuls of nourishment through the mouth?"
"That is not so."
"Why is that so?"
"Gautama! A jīva residing in the womb takes nourishment from all sides, transforms [it] from all sides, inhales from all sides, exhales from all sides; it frequently takes nourishment, frequently transforms [it], frequently inhales, frequently exhales; occasionally takes nourishment, occasionally transforms [it], occasionally inhales, occasionally exhales.
The channel carrying fluid from the mother's soul [leads to] the channel carrying fluid to the child's soul; connected to the mother's soul and reaching the child's soul—thereby it takes nourishment, thereby it transforms [it].
And another [channel] too is connected to the child's soul and reaches the mother's soul—thereby it builds up, thereby it augments. For that reason, Gautama, it is said: A jīva residing in the womb is not able to consume mouthfuls of nourishment through the mouth."
"Venerable Sir! How many maternal body parts are declared?"
"Gautama! Three maternal body parts are declared, namely: flesh, blood, and brain."
"Venerable Sir! How many paternal body parts are declared?"
"Gautama! Three paternal body parts are declared, namely: bones, bone-marrow, and hair of the head, beard, body hair, and nails."
"Venerable Sir! For how long does the physical body derived from mother and father endure?"
"Gautama! For as long as its physical body maintaining life is not destroyed, for that long it endures; and thereafter, waning moment by moment, in the very last moment of life it ceases to be."
"Venerable Sir! Could a jīva residing in the womb be reborn among the inhabitants of hell?"
"Gautama! Some may be reborn [there], some may not be reborn [there]."
"Why, Venerable Sir, is it said: 'Some may be reborn [there], some may not be reborn [there]'?"
"Gautama! A sentient, five-sensed being who is fully developed in all attainments, possessing the power of energy and the power of transformation, upon hearing and discerning that an enemy army has arrived, extends [its] soul-points; having extended them, it undergoes transformation-burst; having undergone [transformation-burst], it creates a fourfold army; having created [it], it wages war with the fourfold army against the enemy army.
That jīva, desirous of wealth, desirous of kingdom, desirous of pleasures, desirous of sensual desires; longing for wealth, longing for kingdom, longing for pleasures, longing for sensual desires; thirsting for wealth, thirsting for kingdom, thirsting for pleasures, thirsting for sensual desires; with its thought there, its mind there, its lesyā there, its volition there, its intense volition there, attentive to that purpose, devoted to that, permeated by that contemplation—if it should die in that interval, it is reborn among the inhabitants of hell. For that reason, Gautama, it is said: 'Some may be reborn [there], some may not be reborn [there].'"
"Venerable Sir! Could a jīva residing in the womb be reborn in the heavenly realms?"
"Gautama! Some may be reborn [there], some may not be reborn [there]."
"Why, Venerable Sir, is it said: 'Some may be reborn [there], some may not be reborn [there]'?"
"Gautama! A sentient, five-sensed being who is fully developed in all attainments, upon hearing and discerning even a single noble, righteous, good word in the presence of an appropriate śramaṇa or brāhmaṇa, then becomes faithful out of spiritual longing and impassioned with deep love for the Dharma.
That jīva, desirous of Dharma, desirous of merit, desirous of heaven, desirous of liberation; longing for Dharma, longing for merit, longing for heaven, longing for liberation; thirsting for Dharma, thirsting for merit, thirsting for heaven, thirsting for liberation; with its thought there, its mind there, its lesyā there, its volition there, its intense volition there, attentive to that purpose, devoted to that, permeated by that contemplation—if it should die in that interval, it is reborn in the heavenly realms. For that reason, Gautama, it is said: 'Some may be reborn [there], some may not be reborn [there].'"
"Venerable Sir! While in the womb, does a jīva lie supine, on its side, or hunched like a mango? Does it move? Does it stand? Does it sit? Does it recline? When the mother sleeps, does it sleep? When she is awake, is it awake? When she is happy, is it happy? When she is suffering, is it suffering?"
"Yes, Gautama! While in the womb, a jīva lies supine, on its side, or hunched like a mango; it may stay, stand, sit, or recline. When the mother sleeps, it sleeps; when she is awake, it is awake; when she is happy, it is happy; when she is suffering, it is suffering.
Then, at the time of delivery, if it comes out head-first or feet-first, it comes out smoothly; if it comes out sideways, it meets with destruction.
If its karmas that destroy beauty are bound, touched, made invariable, performed, set forth, firmly entered, acquired, and activated—not calmed down—then it becomes deformed, of bad complexion, of bad smell, of bad taste, of bad touch, undesirable, unlovely, unpleasing, inauspicious, disagreeable, uncharming, of low voice, of wretched voice, of undesirable voice, of unlovely voice, of unpleasing voice, of inauspicious voice, of disagreeable voice, of uncharming voice, and born with speech that is not accepted.
And if its karmas that destroy beauty are not bound, not touched, not made invariable, not performed, not set forth, not firmly entered, not acquired, not activated—and are calmed down—then it becomes well-formed, of good complexion, of good smell, of good taste, of good touch, desirable, lovely, pleasing, auspicious, agreeable, charming, of not low voice, of not wretched voice, of desirable voice, of lovely voice, of pleasing voice, of auspicious voice, of agreeable voice, of charming voice, and born with speech that is accepted."
"So it is, Venerable Sir! So it is, Venerable Sir!"
