[478] [From the Prajñāpanā [662.1 U.] Gautama! (They) are not born from the Nairāyikas, nor are they born from the Tiryanchayonikas, (but) they are born from humans / They are not born from the Devas / [2] If (they) are born from humans, are they born from Sammūchchima humans, (or) are they born from Garbhaja humans? [662-2 U.] Gautama! (Those Ānata Devas) are born from Garbhaja humans, but not from Sammūchchima humans. [3] If (they) are born from Garbhaja humans, are they born from Karmabhūmika Garbhaja humans, (or) are they born from Akarmabhūmika Garbhaja humans, (or) are they born from Antarvīpaja Garbhaja humans? [662-3 U.] Gautama! (They) are born from Karmabhūmika Garbhaja humans, but they are not born from Akarmabhūmika Garbhaja humans, nor are they born from Antarvīpaja Garbhaja humans / [4] If (they) are born from Karmabhūmika Garbhaja humans, are they born from Karmabhūmika Garbhaja humans who have a lifespan of a countable number of years, or are they born from Karmabhūmika Garbhaja humans who have a lifespan of an uncountable number of years? [662-4 U.] Gautama! (They) are born from Karmabhūmika Garbhaja humans who have a lifespan of a countable number of years, but they are not born from Karmabhūmika Garbhaja humans who have a lifespan of an uncountable number of years. [5] If (they) are born from Karmabhūmika Garbhaja humans who have a lifespan of a countable number of years, are they born from those who have attained liberation, or are they born from those who have not attained liberation? Gautama! (They) are born from those who have attained liberation and have a lifespan of a countable number of years, but not from those who have not attained liberation.
