abhūyâbhisankaņa (ibid. under 7): ‘not afraid of ghosts and demons (bhūta)'; paridevaņayā (V' i 2): punaḥ punaḥ klistabhāşanatā.
8. OHA.
The term oha does not appear in the text. According to Abhay. (852b) it denotes the undifferentiated 'multitude of beings as against the beings capable of salvation etc. in udd. 9 seqq.
a (927a) * When being reincarnated, souls (ee vi jīvā in the answer, whereas the question has neraiyā nam bhante kaham uvavajjanti? Cf. f below), by means of purposive acting (ajjhavasāņa-nivvattienam karanóvāenam), leave their (present] existence (thāna) and enter their new (purima: purovartin, Abhay.) existence ‘in a wink' (? seya-kāle: esyati kāle, Abhay.; cf. V 414), leaping like a monkey (pavao viva pavamāņā). b Their velocity, ref. to XIV 12. © They produce the quantity of life of their new existence (para-bhaviy'āuyam pakarenti) by [their own] decisions and activities (ajjhavasāņa-joga-nivvattienam karanôvāenam). (927b) Their rebirth (gai) is brought about by the wane of their quantity of life, form of existence and duration (āu-, bhava- and thiż-kkhaya). e They are reborn on their own strength (āya'ddhữe no par'iddhie), on the strength of their own karmans (āya-kammuņā etc.) and exertions (āya-ppaogenam etc.); cf. XX 102 and IX 326. i The same is true with all beings (cf. the question in a above). The text expressly points out the exceptional case of the A1 for which the process of rebirth takes four samayas (causamaiya viggaha); cf. VII 11. * *
9-10. BHAVIYÂBHAVIYA.
11-12. SAMMA-MICCHA.
The same is true with [udd. 9 (927b)] beings capable (bh av a-siddhiya) and sudd. 10 (ibid.)] incapable of salvation (a b h. - s.), as well as with [udd. 11 (ibid.)] orthodox (s a mmadiţthi) and sudd. 12 (ibid.)] heretical (miccha diț țhi) beings. * * at the end of each udd.
