## Third Chapter: The Authority of the Transmigratory Beings [267]
There are two types of transmigratory beings, namely, the **Sammūchhim Khechara Panchendriya** and the **Garbhavyutkrāntika Khechara Panchendriya**. What are the **Sammūchhim Khechara Panchendriya**? They are of two types, namely, the **Paryāpta Sammūchhim Khechara Panchendriya** and the **Aparyāpta Sammūchhim Khechara Panchendriya**. The same should be said about the **Garbhavyutkrāntika**.
**O Bhagavan! How many types of Yonisangraha are there for the Khechara Panchendriya Transmigratory Beings?**
**Gautama! There are three types of Yonisangraha, namely, Andaja, Potaja, and Sammūchhim.**
**Andaja are of three types:** Female, Male, and Neuter.
**Potaja are of three types:** Female, Male, and Neuter.
**Sammūchhim are all Neuter.**
**Discussion:** The distinctions of the Transmigratory Beings are established in the scriptures, therefore, there is no need for clarification. Only the clarification of Yonisangraha is as follows:
**Yonisangraha means the distinction made based on the Yoni (birth).**
**The birth of birds is of three types:** Those born from eggs, such as peacocks, etc.; those born from pods, such as wagtails, etc.; and those born from Sammūchhim, such as sparrows, etc.
**Generally, there are four types of Yonisangraha:** 1. Jarāyuja, 2. Andaja, 3. Potaja, and 4. Sammūchhim.
**There is no mention of Jarāyuja in birds. However, excluding Andaja, the rest, both Jarāyuja and Ajarāyuja Garbhaja, are included in Potaja, making three types of Yonisangraha consistent.**
**Andaja are of all three types:** Female, Male, and Neuter.
**Potaja are also of all three genders.**
**Sammūchhim born beings are only Neuter, because their Neuter Veda is definitely manifested.**
**Dvāraprarupaṇā 97. [1] O Bhagavan! How many types of Lesas are there for the Jivas?**
**Gautama! There are six types of Lesas, namely, Kaṇhaleśa to Sukkaleśa.**
**O Bhagavan! Are the Jivas Sammadṛṣṭi, Micchāviṭṭhi, or Sammāmicchāviṭṭhi?**
**Gautama! They are Sammadṛṣṭi, Micchāviṭṭhi, and Sammāmicchāviṭṭhi.**
**O Bhagavan! Are the Jivas Jñānī, Ajñānī?**
**Gautama! They are Jñānī, Ajñānī, and possess three types of Jñāna and three types of Ajñāna.**
**O Bhagavan! Are the Jivas Mana-yogi, Vai-yogi, or Kāya-yogi?**
**Except for Andaja, all other Jarāyuja or Ajarāyuja Garbhavyutkrāntika Panchendriya are included in Potaja. Therefore, three types of Yonisangraha are mentioned, not four.**
**Also, there are no Jarāyuja in birds, therefore, three types of Yonisangraha are mentioned here.**
