At that time, in that period, in Rājagṛha, while venerating [him] up to, he spoke thus:
"Venerable Sir! Does wind-body originate upon an anvil?"
"Yes, it does."
"Venerable Sir, does it perish when touched? Does it perish when not touched?"
"Gautama, it perishes when touched, not when untouched."
"Venerable Sir, does it depart embodied? Does it depart unembodied?"
"Gautama, it departs sometimes embodied, sometimes unembodied."
"Venerable Sir, for what reason is it said: 'It departs sometimes embodied, sometimes unembodied'?"
"Gautama, four bodies have been declared for a wind-body, that is: gross, protean, fiery, and karmic. Having discarded the gross and protean, it departs with the fiery and karmic. For that reason, Gautama, it is said: 'It departs sometimes embodied, sometimes unembodied.'"
