522) [Prajñāpanāsūtra _ The meaning of Saccittadi Yonis: Saccitta Yoni - the Yoni that is associated with the Jiva (Prātmā) regions. Pracitta Yoni - the Yoni that is devoid of Jiva. Miśra Yoni - the Yoni that is both free and not free from Jiva, i.e., which is both Saccitta and Acitta. What kind of Yoni do the Jivas have and why? - The Upapata Kṣetra of the Narakas are not possessed by any Jiva, therefore they are not Saccitta (living), hence their Yoni is Acitta. / Although the Sūkṣma Ekendriya Jivas are present in all Lokas (Lokākāśa), however, the regions of those Jivas are not interconnected with the Pudgala of those Upayata Kṣetra, i.e., those Upayata Kṣetra are not the body form of those Sūkṣma Ekendriya Jivas, therefore the Yoni of the Nairāyikas is said to be Acitta. Similarly, the Yonis of the Aśurakumāra etc. Daśavidha Bhavanapati Devas, Vyantaras, Jyotiṣkas and Vaimānika Devas should also be understood as Acitta. From the Pṛthvīkāyikas to the Sammūcchima Manusya, all their Upapata Kṣetra are possessed by Jivas, not possessed, and both, therefore their Yoni is of all three types. Where the Garbhaja Tiryacpancendriya and Garbhaja Manusya are born, there are also Acitta Śukra-Śonita etc. Pudgala, therefore they are of Miśra Yoni. Compared to Saccittadi Yonis, the Jivas of Miśrayoni are said to be the least because only Garbhaja Tiryacpancendriya and Garbhaja Manusya are Miśrayoni. / The Acitta Yoni Jivas are countless times more than them, because all Devas, Narakas and some Pṛthvīkāyika, Apkāyika, Tejas Kāyika, Vāyu Kāyika, each Vanaspatika Kāyika, Dvi-Tri-Caturindriya Jiva, Sammūcchima Tiryac Pancendriya and Sammūcchima Manusya are of Acitta Yoni. Compared to Acitta Yoni, the Ayoni (Siddh) Jivas are infinite, because Siddhas are infinite and compared to Ayoni, the Saccitta Yoni Jivas are infinitely more, because the Jivas of Nigoda are Saccitta Yoni and they are infinitely more than the Siddhas. / 'The description of the three types of Yonis, Samvatadi, in all Jivas 764. How many types of Yoni are there, Bhante? Gautama! There are three types of Yoni. / That is - (1) Samvṛta Yoni, Vivṛta Yoni and (3) Samvṛta-Vivṛta Yoni. [764 Pr.] Bhagavan! How many types of Yoni are said to be? [764 U.] Gautama! Yoni is said to be of three types. / It is as follows - (1) Samvṛta Yoni, Vivṛta Yoni and (3) Samvṛta-Vivṛta Yoni. / 765. Neraiyāṇam Bhante! What is Samvṛta Yoni, Vivṛta Yoni, Samvṛta-Vivṛta Yoni? Gautama! Samvṛta Yoni, not Vivṛta Yoni, not Samvṛta-Vivṛta Yoni. 1. Prajñāpanāsūtra Malay. Vṛtti, Patrānka 226-227.
