At Rājagṛha […] up to [Gautama] spoke thus: "Venerable Sir, do jīvas have old age (jarā) [and] grief (śoka)?"
"Gautama! Jīvas have both old age and grief."
"Why, Venerable Sir, is it said: 'Jīvas have both old age and grief'?"
"Gautama! Those jīvas who experience bodily pain—those jīvas have old age. Those jīvas who experience mental pain—those jīvas have grief. For that reason, Gautama, it is said: 'Jīvas have both old age and grief.' Thus also for hell-beings. Thus up to the Stanitakumāra gods."
"Venerable Sir, do earth-bodied beings have old age [and] grief?"
"Gautama! Earth-bodied beings have old age, not grief."
"Why, Venerable Sir, is it said: 'Earth-bodied beings have old age, not grief'?"
"Gautama! Earth-bodied beings experience bodily pain; they do not experience mental pain. For that reason, Gautama, it is said: 'Earth-bodied beings have old age, not grief.' Thus up to four-sensed beings. The rest are like jīvas up to celestial beings in vaimānika abodes."
"It is so, Venerable Sir! It is so, Venerable Sir!" […] up to he reverently attended upon him.
