The second spatial division [127 and a half dvipa-samudras (island-oceans) in extent, as wide as 127 and a half dvipa-samudras, and extending east, west, south, and north to the self-luminous Raman ocean, are the two gates, which, like the gates at the time of the Kevali's liberation, touch the end of the upper realm and the end of the lower realm. These are called the 'two upper gates'. In addition, the meaning of 'tatta' is 'sthala' (thala) / that is, the 'tatta' (sthala) resembling a 'sthala' is called the 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm) / the meaning is that the entire 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm) resembling a 'sthala' is 1800 yojanas thick up to the vedika of the self-luminous Raman ocean. The conclusion is that, in comparison to the 'upapata' (place of birth), the two upper gates of the realm and the 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm) resembling a 'sthala' are the places of the 'badar' (inferior) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) beings / According to the variant reading 'loyassa dosuddha kavaadesu tiriyaloyata?', this meaning is also possible - those who are situated in those two upper gates of the realm are 'tat-sth' (situated there) / thus - in the 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm) resembling 'tat-sth' (situated there) - that is - in the 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm) situated inside those two upper gates, they are / The conclusion is that the 'upapata' (place of birth) of the 'badar' (inferior) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) beings is in the aforementioned two upper gates and also in the 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm) (situated) in those same gates, not elsewhere. It should be understood here that the 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) beings with the 'abhimukhanamgotr' (facing name and lineage) are of three types: (1) 'ekabhavik' (one-life), (2) 'badghayushk' (bound-lifespan), and (3) 'abhimukhanamgotr' (facing name and lineage) / Those beings who will be born in the 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) form in the next life after a particular life are called 'ekabhavik' (one-life), those beings who have bound the lifespan of the 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) with a remaining time of one-third of the lifespan of the previous life, etc., are called 'badghayushk' (bound-lifespan), and those who are experiencing the lifespan, name, and lineage of the 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) directly after leaving the previous life, that is, experiencing the 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) state, are called 'abhimukhanamgotr' (facing name and lineage). Of these three types of 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) beings, the first two - 'ekabhavik' (one-life) and 'badghayushk' (bound-lifespan) - are 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) only due to the 'dravya-nikshepa' (material deposition), not due to the 'bhavana-nikshepa' (mental deposition), because these two do not experience lifespan, name, and lineage at that time; therefore, they do not have authority here, but only the 'abhimukhanamgotr' (facing name and lineage) 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) beings should be considered to have authority here, because they are the ones who obtain the 'upapata' (place of birth) in the form of 'praabhimukhya' (facing towards) the attainment of their own place. Although, from the perspective of the 'rij-satranaya' (straightforward path), they also obtain the name 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) due to experiencing the lifespan, name, and lineage of the 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) beings, even though they are situated outside the aforementioned pair of gates and the 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm), however, here, due to accepting the perspective of the 'vyavahar-naya' (practical path), those who are situated in the pair of gates in the same series in their own place, and those who have entered the 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm) from their own place, are called 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) beings; the rest, who are situated in the interval of the gates, are not, because they are 'visham-sthana-varti' (situated in a different place) / Thus, those who have not yet entered the aforementioned pair of gates and have not entered the 'tiryagloka' (horizontal realm), are still situated in the previous life, therefore, they are not counted among the 'badar' (inferior) 'aparayaapta' (deficient) 'tejaskaayik' (radiant) beings / It is also said: 'Panayalallakhapihala dunni kavaada ya chhisi pritta. Logante tesin'to je teja te u vipati.'
