20—21. Akuti is the external process or the activity of running after mirage; the eleven organs form the army which finds recreation in the five-fold slaughter (the enjoyment of improper objects by the five senses). Chandavega is the year characterised by incomprehensible velocity; here the day time or the days are called Gandharvas; and the nights are called Gandharva women; and by their three hundred and sixty turns they reduce the age of man.
