c7.s3.t5.8

The two last classes originate by procreation, the two first, without it (p. 768, 10). The passage from the Chândogya-Upanishad, which we gave in the introduction to our chapter above p. 230, exhibits only three classes, for it joins the two first together, as if both came forth from germs, the one from earth, the other from water (p. 769, 3); yet the separation is justified, for the first class embraces immovable, the second movable beings (p. 769, 5).
