In the *Prajñāpanā Sūtra*, six *bhangas* (categories) are found in the *nārakas* (hell beings), *devas* (gods), and *manushyas* (humans) due to the *bhāṣā-manaḥ-paryāpti* (linguistic and mental fulfillment) and its absence. The remaining beings, excluding the *samuccaya jīvas* (aggregate beings) and *ekendriyas* (one-sensed beings), have three *bhangas*. 1906. In beings with *bhāṣā-manaḥ-paryāpti* (linguistic and mental fulfillment) and its absence, there are three *bhangas* in the *pancendriya-tiryañca* (five-sensed animals) and other beings. In the *nārakas*, *devas*, and *manushyas*, there are six *bhangas*. [1906] In the *samuccaya jīvas* and *pancendriya-tiryañca* (five-sensed animals) with *bhāṣā-manaḥ-paryāpti* (linguistic and mental fulfillment) and its absence, there are three *bhangas* (categories). In the *nārakas*, *devas*, and *manushyas* (hell beings, gods, and humans), there are six *bhangas* (categories). 1907. In all (13) categories, the *jīvādi* (beings) should be questioned according to the concept of oneness and multiplicity. The *daṇḍaka* (category) should be questioned about what is possible in it, and not about what is not possible. Until the *bhāṣā-manaḥ-paryāpti* (linguistic and mental fulfillment) and its absence in the *nārakas*, *devas*, and *manushyas* (hell beings, gods, and humans) results in six *bhangas* (categories), and until the *samuccaya jīvas* (aggregate beings) and *pancendriya-tiryañca* (five-sensed animals) different from the *nārakas*, *devas*, and *manushyas* (hell beings, gods, and humans) results in three *bhangas* (categories), it should be understood. [Thirteenth Gate] Discussion - Based on the *paryāpti* (fulfillment) gate, the *prāhārak* (eater) and *anāhārak* (non-eater) are categorized. Although other scriptures consider six *paryāptis* (fulfillments), here, *bhāṣā-paryāpti* (linguistic fulfillment) and *manaḥ-paryāpti* (mental fulfillment) are combined into one, resulting in only five *paryāptis* (fulfillments). _The *samuccaya jīvas* (aggregate beings) and *manushyas* (humans) who are fulfilled by the *āhāradi* (food) and other five *paryāptis* (fulfillments) have three *bhangas* (categories) each. Except for these two, the other five *paryāptis* (fulfillments) are *āhārak* (eaters) and not *anāhārak* (non-eaters). The *ekendriyas* (one-sensed beings) and *vikaleṇdriyas* (disabled-sensed beings) do not have *bhāṣā-manaḥ-paryāpti* (linguistic and mental fulfillment). The *anāhārak* (non-eater) is considered to be due to the absence of *āhāraparyāpti* (food fulfillment) in terms of oneness and multiplicity, not the *āhārak* (eater), because the being who is absent of *āhāraparyāpti* (food fulfillment) is found only in the *vigraha-gati* (state of disintegration). Upon entering the *upapāta-kṣetra* (field of rebirth), it becomes fulfilled by *āhāraparyāpti* (food fulfillment) for the first time. Therefore, it is not called *āhārak* (eater) for the first time. There are many *anāhārak* (non-eaters) in the concept of multiplicity. The being who is absent of *śarīraparyāpti* (body fulfillment) is sometimes *prāhārak* (eater) and sometimes *anāhārak* (non-eater). The one who is complete in *vigraha-gati* (state of disintegration) is *anāhārak* (non-eater), and the one who reaches the *upapāta-kṣetra* (field of rebirth) is *prāhārak* (eater).
