"For what reason, Venerable Sir, is it said: 'gross pudgala-cycle, gross pudgala-cycle'?"
"Gautama! Because by a jīva existing in a gross body, the substances fit for a gross body have been taken up, bound, touched, made, set up, settled, deeply settled, thoroughly acquired, completely consumed, transformed, dissipated, discarded, and cast off as a gross body. For that reason, Gautama, it is said: 'gross pudgala-cycle, gross pudgala-cycle'.
Likewise also for the transformable pudgala-cycle, with the only difference: 'by one existing in a transformable body, substances fit for a transformable body were taken up as a transformable body'; all the rest is just the same. Likewise up to the respiration pudgala-cycle, with the only difference: 'all substances fit for respiration were taken up as respiration'; all the rest is just the same.
"In how much time, Venerable Sir, is a gross pudgala-cycle completed?"
"Gautama! It is completed in so much time as infinite avasarpiṇīs and utsarpinīs. Likewise also for the transformable pudgala-cycle. Likewise up to the respiration pudgala-cycle.
"Of these, Venerable Sir—the time for completing the gross pudgala-cycle, the time for completing the transformable pudgala-cycle, up to the time for completing the respiration pudgala-cycle—which are fewer, more, equal, or specifically greater compared to which?"
"Gautama! The time for completing the karmic pudgala-cycle is the least of all; the time for completing the fiery pudgala-cycle is infinitely greater; the time for completing the gross pudgala-cycle is infinitely greater; the time for completing the respiration pudgala-cycle is infinitely greater; the time for completing the mental pudgala-cycle is infinitely greater; the time for completing the vocal pudgala-cycle is infinitely greater; the time for completing the transformable pudgala-cycle is infinitely greater."
