1. BEINDIYA.
(773b) * The same discussion as in XIX 3a (with ref. to that place) in connection with two-sensed (beindiya), three-, four- and five-sensed living beings. Of course several properties vary for the different classes; consciousness and speech [9-10] for instance first appear with some (not all!) five-sensed beings. At the end the relative frequency of these beings: their number is inversely proportional to the number of their senses.
