The thirty-fourth **Paricharanapada** [203 Discussion - From Anantarahara to Vikurvana, a discussion of the order of the twenty-four **Dandakavarti** beings like Naraka, etc. - In the first gate, the order of Anantarahara, Nishpatti, Paryadanata, Parinamana, Paricharana, and Vikurvana has been discussed in relation to the twenty-four **Dandakavarti** beings like Naraka, etc. / The special meaning of Anantarahara, etc. - Anantarahara - those who eat as soon as they enter the field of origin / Nirvartana - the origin of the body, Paryadanata - the intake of **Pudgala** that is food / Parinamana - the transformation of the taken **Pudgala** into the form of the body, senses, etc. / Paricharana - the enjoyment of objects like words, etc. as per their suitability / Vikurvana - reacting with the power of **Vaikriyalabdhi**. The question is whether Naraka, etc. are Anantarahara? In other words, do they eat immediately upon reaching the field of origin without any delay? After that, does their body undergo Nirvartana - origin (creation)? After the origin of the body, do they take in **Pudgala** through **Lomaahara**, etc. with their limbs? Then, do those taken **Pudgala** transform into the form of the body, senses, etc.? After the transformation, when the senses are strengthened, do they perform Paricharana? In other words, do they enjoy objects like words, etc. as per their suitability? And then, do they react with the power of their **Vaikriyalabdhi**? 2 Summary of the answer - The Lord has answered this sequential process with 'yes'. But except for **Vayukaayika**, the rest of the **Ekendirya** and **Vikalendirya** do not perform Vikurvana, because they cannot attain **Vaikriyalabdhi** / The second special point is that in the four types of Devas - **Bhavanapati**, **Vanavyantara**, **Jyotishka**, and **Vaimanika**, Vikurvana happens first and Paricharana happens later, while in the rest of the beings like Naraka, etc., the order is Paricharana followed by Vikurvana. The nature of the Devas is such that when they desire to enjoy specific words, etc., they first create the desired **Vaikriya** form and then enjoy the words, etc., but the beings like **Nairyika**, etc. react due to excessive joy upon receiving the enjoyment of words, etc., because of their desire to enjoy the most specific words, etc. Therefore, in the case of Devas, Vikurvana is mentioned first and Paricharana later.

Is the food of **Nairyika** **Abhog-nirvartit** or **Anabhog-nirvartit**? 1. **Pannavanasutta** Bha. 1 (Original text - with commentary) p. 419 2. (a) **Prajnaapana**.
