Transition and Reception of Group of Species : (71)
The transitional position of the group of 22-species undergoes transition, as a rule, in four receptor positions consisting of the groups of 14, 10, 7 and 18 species.
The group of 22-species is found, as a rule, in human destinity in the spiritual stages of abstinence, partial abstinence and non-abstinent right-faith ones. (i.e. 4, 5, 6 stages)
The transitional position of the group of 21-species undergoes transition in the six receptor positions consisting of the groups of 13, 9, 7, 17, 5 and 21 species. All these receptor positions are in the spiritual stages associated with righteousness (i.e. 2nd-99h spiritual stages).
The remaining transitional position of the groups of species beginning from the group of twenty etc. and the receptor positions of the group of species beginning from six etc. occur only in the subsidential and destructional ladder of spiritual stages associated with restraint. For example, the group of 20-species undergoes transition in two receptor positions consisting of a group of six and five species respectively.
