## Ninth Yooni-pada [523 [765 Pr.]]
**O Bhagavan!** What kind of yooni do the Nairyikas have? Is it a closed yooni, an open yooni, or a closed-open yooni?
**[765 U.]** Gautama! The Nairyikas have a closed yooni, but not an open yooni, nor a closed-open yooni.
**766.** Similarly, this should be said about the yooni of the Vanaspatikayika beings.
**[767 Pr.]** O Bhagavan! What kind of yooni do the Dwindriya beings have? Is it a closed yooni, an open yooni, or a closed-open yooni?
**[767 U.]** Gautama! They do not have a closed yooni, but an open yooni, but not a closed-open yooni.
**768.** Similarly, this should be understood about the yooni of the Chaturindriya beings.
**766.** This should also be understood about the yooni of the Sammuchchhim Panchendriya Tiryanch and the Sammuchchhim Manusya.
**770.** The yooni of the Garbhajak Panchendriya Tiryanch and the Garbhajak Manusya is neither closed nor open, but closed-open.
**771.** The yooni of the Vanavyantar, Jyotishk, and Vaimanik Devas should be understood like that of the Nairyikas.
**772.** O Bhagavan! Among these beings, which ones have a closed yooni, an open yooni, a closed-open yooni, and a Prajooni? Are they few, many, equal, or different?
**[U.]** Gautama! All beings have a closed-open yooni, an open yooni, an infinite number of Prajoonis, and an infinite number of closed yoonis.
