**Evam Khalu Jambu:** "O Jambu! The Great Hero, the Ascetic, the Liberated One, declared ten studies of the eighth section of the Antagaddadasa of the eighth anga, which are as follows:
(1). Kali (2). Sukali (3). Mahakali (4). Kanha (5). Sukanha (6). Mahakanha (7). Virakanha, who is also known as Bodhavva (8). Ramakanha, likewise (9). Pitusenakanha, the ninth (10). Mahasekanha, the tenth. ||1||
**Jada:** "O Venerable One! If the Great Hero, the Ascetic, the Liberated One, declared ten studies of the eighth section of the Antagaddadasa, then what did he declare as the meaning of the first study of the Antagaddadasa?"
**Evam Khalu Jambu:** "O Jambu! In that time and at that time, there was a city named Champa. There was a garden called Punnabhadde. In that city of Champa, there was a king named Konika. In that city of Champa, there was a queen named Kali, the daughter of the king Seniya, the younger sister of Konika. Just as Nanda, up to the Samaiya, has eleven limbs, and dwells in many forms, up to the fourth, being attached to her own form."
**Sri Jambuswami** asked **Arya Sudharmaswami:** "O Venerable One! What did the Ascetic, the Liberated One, the Great Hero, declare as the meaning of the eighth section of the Antagaddadasa of the eighth anga?"
**Sri Sudharmaswami** replied: "O Jambu! The Ascetic, the Liberated One, the Great Hero, declared ten studies of the eighth section of the Antagaddadasa of the eighth anga, which are as follows:
**Gatha-arth:** (1). Kali (2). Sukali (3). Mahakali (4). Krishna (5). Sukrishna (6). Mahakrisha (7). Virakrishna (8). Ramakrishna (9). Pitusenakrishna and (10). Mahasekanha.
**Sri Jambuswami** asked again: "O Venerable One! If there are ten studies of the eighth section, then what did the Ascetic, the Liberated One, the Great Hero, declare as the meaning of the first study?"
**Arya Sudharmaswami** replied: "O Jambu! In that time and at that time, there was a city named Champa. There was a garden called Punnabhadde. In that city of Champa, there was a king named Konika. In that city of Champa, there was a queen named Kali, the daughter of the king Seniya, the younger sister of Konika. Just as Nanda, up to the Samaiya, has eleven limbs, and dwells in many forms, up to the fourth, being attached to her own form."
