## Third Rebirth: One-Many-Transformation
[243] The Mahantas of the Lohiya-Kunkhuru-Vai, Dharam-May-Tund-Vai, and Gom-May-Kod-Samana-Vai, are scattered about. They are scattered, and while eating, they eat, and while moving, they move, and while entering, they enter, and they experience pain. The pain is bright, burning, vast, deep, harsh, bitter, rough, cruel, fierce, intense, painful, unbearable, and difficult to endure. [9] (2) O Bhagavan! Are the Nairyikas of the Ratna-Prabha-Prithvi capable of creating one form or many forms? Gautama! They can create one form and many forms. While creating one form, they are capable of creating a mudgar form, similarly a musandi (a special weapon), karvat, sword, shakti, plow, gada, musal, chakra, arrow, spear, tomar, shul, lakut (stick), and bindamal (a special weapon). While creating many forms, they create many mudgar, bhushandi, and bindamal. While transforming these many weapon forms, they can only transform the number of weapons, not countless. They can transform those connected to their body, not those unconnected. They can create similar forms, not dissimilar. By creating these various weapons, they strike each other Nairyikas and produce pain. That pain is bright, meaning it does not have even a little bit of happiness, it burns. It is vast, because it is spread throughout the entire body. It is deep, because it is spread throughout the vital points. It is harsh, like the clash of stone blocks breaks the limbs of the body, similarly that pain breaks the inner parts of the soul. It is bitter, like a bitter medicine. It is rough, because it creates roughness in the mind. It is cruel, because it is impossible to retaliate, making it impenetrable. It is fierce, because it causes anger and determination. It is intense, because it is excessive. It is painful, unbearable, and difficult to endure. This should be said up to the Dhum-Prabha-Prithvi (fifth hell). The Nairyikas of the sixth and seventh Prithvi create many and large (like dung beetles) red kunthus, whose mouths are like a vajra and who are like dung beetles. By transforming into such a kunthu form, they climb onto each other's bodies, repeatedly cut their bodies, and like the insects of the sugarcane stalk, they enter inside and produce bright, unbearable pain. 89. [3] O Bhagavan! Do the Nairyikas of the Rayan-Prabha-Prithvi experience cold pain, hot pain, or both? Gautama! They do not experience cold pain, they experience hot pain, not both, and so on up to the Balay-Prabha. In the Pank-Prabha, Gautama! They experience both cold and hot pain, but they do not experience both cold and hot pain. Those who experience hot pain are more numerous, and those who experience cold pain are fewer. 1, Here in the manuscripts, the reading ('te appyara upahajonia vedeti') is excessive and does not make sense. It seems to be a mistake. Editor.
