"Now, Venerable Sir, of vāiṅgaṇī, allakī, poṇḍakī—thus it is to be understood according to the verses in the Prajñāpanā up to gañja, pāṭalā, dāsī, and aṅkolla—those souls who pass into existence as the roots of these?"

In this manner here too, ten uddeśakas beginning with root [are to be stated] completely just like [those] of the śāli [group].

"Now, Venerable Sir, of pūsaphalī, kāliṅgī, tumbī, trapuṣī, elāvālukī—thus the words are to be divided according to the Prajñāpanā verses as in the tāla group up to dadhiphollakī, kākalī, mokalī, and arkabombī—those souls who pass into existence as the roots of these?" In this manner here too, ten uddeśakas beginning with root are to be stated just like the tāla group, with this difference: in the fruit uddeśaka, the body size is minimally an innumerableth part of a finger-breadth, maximally a few dhanuses; lifespan duration everywhere is minimally an antarmuhūrta, maximally a few years; the rest is just that. Thus in all six groups there are sixty uddeśakas.
