Perfection is reached by people of the greatest, smallest, and middle size, on high places, underground, on the surface of the earth, in the ocean, and in water (of rivers, &c.). (51)
Ten hermaphrodites reach, at the same time, perfection, twenty women, one hundred and eight men; four householders, ten heterodox, and one hundred and eight orthodox monks. (52, 53)
Two individuals of the greatest size reach perfection (simultaneously), four of the smallest size, and one hundred and eight of the middle size. (54)
Four individuals reach perfection (simultaneously) on high places, two in the ocean, three in water, twenty underground, and one hundred and eight on the surface of the earth. (55)
From where are the perfected souls debarred? Where do the perfected souls reside? Where do they leave their bodies, and where do they go, on reaching perfection? (56)
Perfected souls are debarred from the non-world (Alôka); they reside on the top of the world; they leave their bodies here (below), and go there, on reaching perfection. (57)
Twelve Yôganas above the (Vimâna) Sarvârtha is the place called Îshatprâgbhâra, which has the form of an umbrella; (there the perfected souls go). (58)
It is forty-five hundred thousand Yôganas long, and as many broad, and it is somewhat more than three times as many in circumference. (59)
Its thickness is eight Yôganas, it is greatest in the middle, and decreases toward the margin, till it is thinner than the wing of a fly. (60)
