> At that time, in that period, in Rājagṛha, and so on, \[Gautama\] spoke thus: “Venerable Sir! In terms of soul-nature, is a soul first or not-first?”  
> “Gautama! It is not first; it is not-first. Thus from an inhabitant of hell up to a celestial being \[dwelling in a celestial abode\].  
> Venerable Sir! In terms of liberated-nature, is a liberated soul first or not-first?”  
> “Gautama! It is first, not not-first.”  
> “Venerable Sir! In terms of soul-nature, are souls first or not-first?”  
> “Gautama! They are not first; they are not-first. Thus up to celestial beings \[dwelling in celestial abodes\].  
> Venerable Sir! Liberated souls—” \[the same\] question.  
> “Gautama! They are first, not not-first.”  
> “Venerable Sir! In terms of nourishment-nature, is a nourishing soul first or not-first?”  
> “Gautama! It is not first; it is not-first. Thus up to a celestial being \[dwelling in a celestial abode\]. In the plural, just the same.”  
> “Venerable Sir! In terms of non-nourishment-nature, a non-nourishing soul—” \[the same\] question.  
> “Gautama! It is sometimes first, sometimes not-first.”  
> “Venerable Sir! In terms of non-nourishment-nature, an inhabitant of hell—” \[the same\] question.  
> “Thus from an inhabitant of hell up to a celestial being \[dwelling in a celestial abode\] it is not first, but not-first. A liberated soul is first, not not-first.”  
> “Venerable Sir! In terms of non-nourishment-nature, non-nourishing souls—” \[the same\] question.  
> “Gautama! They are both first and not-first. From inhabitants of hell up to celestial beings \[dwelling in celestial abodes\], they are not first; they are not-first. Liberated souls are first, not not-first—the question is to be stated for each individually.”  
> For a soul capable of liberation, in singularity and plurality, \[it is\] just as for a nourishing \[soul\]; likewise also for one incapable of liberation. “Venerable Sir! In terms of the nature of being neither-capable-of-liberation-nor-incapable-of-liberation, is a soul that is neither capable of liberation nor incapable of liberation—” \[the same\] question.  
> “Gautama! It is first, not not-first. Venerable Sir! In terms of the nature of being neither-capable-of-liberation-nor-incapable-of-liberation, a liberated soul that is neither capable of liberation nor incapable of liberation—” \[the same\] question. Thus also in plurality for both.  
> “Venerable Sir! In terms of the nature of having a mind, is a minded soul first—” \[the same\] question.  
> “Gautama! It is not first; it is not-first. Thus, excluding beings with deficient senses, up to a celestial being \[dwelling in a celestial abode\]. Thus also in plurality. Unminded \[souls are\] just the same in singularity and plurality, with the exception that \[this applies only\] up to Vāṇamantara \[deities\]. A soul that is neither minded nor unminded, \[namely\] a human \[ascetic in the final state\] or a liberated soul, is first, not not-first. Thus also in plurality.  
> “Venerable Sir! One possessing a leśyā—” \[the same\] question.  
> “Gautama! Just as for a nourishing \[soul\], thus also in plurality. From black leśyā up to white leśyā it is just the same, with the exception \[that one applies\] whichever leśyā belongs to whom. For a soul without leśyā, \[namely\] a soul, a human, \[or\] a liberated soul, \[it is\] just as for \[one who is\] neither minded nor unminded.  
> “Venerable Sir! In terms of the nature of right view, is a soul with right view first—” \[the same\] question.  
> “Gautama! It is sometimes first, sometimes not-first. Thus, excluding one-sensed souls, up to a celestial being \[dwelling in a celestial abode\]. A liberated soul is first, not not-first. In plurality, souls are both first and not-first. Thus up to celestial beings \[dwelling in celestial abodes\]. Liberated souls are first, not not-first. A soul with wrong view, in singularity and plurality, is just as nourishing \[souls\]. A soul with mixed right-and-wrong view, in singularity and plurality, is just as \[a soul\] with right view, with the exception \[that it applies to\] whoever has mixed right-and-wrong view.  
> A restrained soul and a \[restrained\] human, in singularity and plurality, are just as \[a soul\] with right view. An unrestrained \[soul is\] just as a nourishing \[soul\]. A partially restrained soul, five-sensed animals, and humans, in singularity and plurality, are just as \[a soul\] with right view. A soul that is neither restrained, nor unrestrained, nor partially restrained, and a liberated soul, in singularity and plurality, is first, not not-first.  
> One with passions, one with anger-passion up to one with greed-passion—these, in singularity and plurality, are just as a nourishing \[soul\]. A passionless soul is sometimes first, sometimes not-first. Thus also a human. A liberated soul is first, not not-first. In plurality, passionless souls and humans are both first and not-first. Liberated souls are first, not not-first.  
> A knowledgeable soul, in singularity and plurality, is just as \[a soul\] with right view. Souls possessing sensory knowledge up to mental-representation knowledge, in singularity and plurality, are just the same, with the exception \[that one applies\] whichever belongs to whom. Omniscient souls, \[namely\] a soul, a human, and a liberated soul, in singularity and plurality, are first, not not-first. Souls with non-knowledge, with sensory non-knowledge, scriptural non-knowledge, and vibhaṅga knowledge, in singularity and plurality, are just as a nourishing \[soul\].  
> Souls possessing activity, mind-activity, speech-activity, \[or\] body-activity, in singularity and plurality, are just as a nourishing \[soul\], with the exception \[that one applies\] whichever activity belongs to whom. Inactive souls, \[namely\] a soul, a human, \[or\] a liberated soul, in singularity and plurality, are first, not not-first.  
> Souls endowed with determinate application \[or\] indeterminate application, in singularity and plurality, are just as a non-nourishing \[soul\].  
> Souls possessing gender up to neuter gender, in singularity and plurality, are just as a nourishing \[soul\], with the exception \[that one applies\] whichever gender belongs to whom. A genderless soul, in singularity and plurality, in all three cases, is just as a passionless \[soul\].  
> A soul possessing a body is just as a nourishing \[soul\], and thus up to one possessing a karmic body, \[according to\] whichever body belongs to whom, with the exception that one possessing a transmutable body, in singularity and plurality, is just as \[a soul\] with right view. A bodiless soul and a liberated soul, in singularity and plurality, is first, not not-first.  
> With respect to the five completions and the five non-completions, in singularity and plurality, \[they are\] just as a nourishing \[soul\], with the exception \[that one applies\] whichever belongs to whom, up to celestial beings \[dwelling in celestial abodes\] they are not first, but not-first.
