**Discussion-**
The first Uddeeshak presents twenty-four doors- the two presented Gāthās mention the twenty-four doors related to Indriyas presented in the first Uddeeshak. Explanation of the twenty-four doors-(1) **Santhaan** door- this presents the structure-form of the Indriyas, (2) **Baahaly** door- this describes the grossness (Bahlata) of the Indriyas, meaning their physical form, (3) **Pruthutva** door- this presents the expanse of the Indriyas, (4) **Kati-Pradesh** door- this explains how many regions each Indriya has, (5) **Pravagaadh** door- this describes how many regions each Indriya is immersed in. (6) **Alpabahutva** door- this presents the Alpabahutva related to immersion and harshness, (7) **Sprušt** door- this presents the presentation related to the touched and untouched, (8) **Pravist** door- this discusses the entered and not entered, (9) **Vishay** door- this describes the quantity of the objects, (10) **Anngār** door- this contains the sutras related to Anngār, (11) **Praahar** door- this contains the sutras related to Praahar, (12) **Praadarsh** door- this presents the presentation related to the mirror, (13) **Asi** door- this presents the presentation related to the Asi, (14) **Mani** door- the statement related to the Mani, (15) **Udapaan** door- the presentation related to drinking water or Udupaan (or the presentation related to milk and drinking), (16) **Tail** door- this contains the statement related to Tail, (17) **Phanit** door- this contains the statement related to Phanit (Jaggery). 1. In many copies, there is a variant reading- **Duddhapaane**- in which the two doors of milk and drinking are separated. But according to the text of Nīśīth Sutra (U. 13), the reading **Udupaane** seems to be authentic. 2. Some Acharyas consider Dweep and Udhadhi as two separate doors. ......
