## The Collection of Verses 1865: The Thirteen Gates of the Second Objective
**Verse 1865:** The Second Objective has thirteen gates: (1) the Food Gate, (2) the Bhavy Gate, (3) the Sanji Gate, (4) the Leshya Gate, (5) the Drishti Gate, (6) the Samyat Gate, (7) the Kashaya Gate, (8) the Gnan Gate, (9-10) the Yog Gate, the Upayog Gate, (11) the Ved Gate, (12) the Sarira Gate, and (13) the Paryapti Gate.
**Discussion:** The Second Objective will be shaped based on these thirteen gates. Here, the use of words like "Bhavy" etc. also implies their opposites, "Abhavy" etc.
**First: The Food Gate**
**Verse 1866:** "O Bhagavan! Is a Jiva a consumer or a non-consumer?" "Gautama! He is a consumer in some ways and a non-consumer in some ways."
**Verse 1866-2:** "One should know this in the same way from the Nairyik (hell) to the Vaimanik (heavenly beings)."
**Verse 1867:** "O Bhagavan! Is a Siddha (liberated soul) a consumer or a non-consumer?" "Gautama! A Siddha is not a consumer, he is a non-consumer."
**Verse 1868:** "O Bhagavan! Are (many) Jivas consumers or non-consumers?" "Gautama! They are both consumers and non-consumers."
