“Are you, sir, one? Are you two? Are you imperishable? Are you immutable? Are you constant? Are you manifold in past and present states?”
“Somila! I am one, up to I am manifold in past and present states.”
“For what reason, Venerable Sir, is it said: ‘I am one, up to I am manifold in past and present states’?”
“Somila! From the standpoint of substance, I am one; from the standpoint of knowledge and perception, I am twofold; from the standpoint of spatial units, I am imperishable, I am immutable, and I am constant; from the standpoint of conscious application, I am manifold in past and present states.

Having paid homage and obeisance, he spoke thus: “Is the brāhmaṇa Somila, Venerable Sir, able to renounce household life for homelessness, having shaved his head in the presence of the Beloved of the Gods?”
“This meaning is not competent. Exactly as in the case of Śaṅkha, in full, up to he will make an end to all suffering.”
