"Now, Venerable Sir, the souls that transition into the roots of these, namely, ayasī, kusumbha, kodrava, kaṅgu, rālaka, varā, kodūsa, saṇa, sarṣapa, and radish seeds—from where, Venerable Sir, do those souls take birth?" Thus here too the ten uddeśakas beginning with root are to be stated without remainder exactly as for sāli.
