भोग इव सुरे नरचतुर्नरायुर्वज्रोनित्वा सुरचतुःसुरायुः। क्षिप्त्वा देवे नैव स्त्री स्त्रियां न पुरुषवेदश्च ॥ ३०४ ॥
304. In the celestials, as in (the humans of) enjoy. ment land, (there operate 78) minus (the 6, i. e.,), the four human (condition, migratory form, physical body and limbs), human age, and admantine-nerves-joints-and-bones; and plus (the 5, i. e.,) the 4 celestial (condition, migratory form, fluid body and limbs), and celestial age, (i. e., 77 subclasses), In the (male) celestials, (there is) no (operation of) female (inclination); and in the female (celestials, there is) no male inclination. (Thus in the celestials, only 76 operate).

305. In the nine) Anudishas, etc., (i. e., in the 14 regions of the 9 Anudhishas and 5 Anuttaras there is) the one stage, (namely the 4th stage of) vowless (right-belief). (There the operation is) as (in the 4th stage of) the celestial beings (i. e., of 70). And in the three residential (peripatetic and stellar celestial beings, and) in the female heavenly beings in the (4th stage of) vowless (right-belief, there) is no (operation of) celestial migratory form. (Thus in these there is operation of only 69).
Commentary. In the residentials, peripatetic, and stellar celestials, and the female heavenly celestials, there is no celestial migratory form in the 4th stage; because a right-believer, dying there, is not reborn as a residential, pripatetic, stellar or female heavenly celestial.
In celestials, 77 operate (like the human of enjoyment lands), 78-6 (i.e., human condition, migratory form and age, physical body
