"Venerable Sir! Are all one-sensed beings equal in nourishment?" In this way, as the statement regarding earth-bodied beings was spoken in the first śataka, second uddeśaka, the very same is to be spoken here regarding one-sensed beings, up to "equal in lifespan, born at the same time".
"Venerable Sir! How many leśyās are declared for one-sensed beings?"
"Gautama! Four leśyās are declared, namely: kṛṣṇa-leśyā, nīla-leśyā, kāpota-leśyā, and tejo-leśyā."
"Venerable Sir! Among these one-sensed beings having kṛṣṇa-leśyā, nīla-leśyā, kāpota-leśyā, and tejo-leśyā, which are fewer, or more, or equal, or specially abundant compared to which?"
"Gautama! The one-sensed beings with tejo-leśyā are the least of all; those with kāpota-leśyā are infinitely manifold; those with nīla-leśyā are specially abundant; those with kṛṣṇa-leśyā are specially abundant."
"Venerable Sir! What is the supernatural power of these one-sensed beings with kṛṣṇa-leśyā?" [The reply is:] just as for the Dvīpakumāras.
"That is so, Venerable Sir! That is so, Venerable Sir!"
