What are stated to be the designation of the black streaks, O Lord? Gautama! there are stated to be eight designations which are kṛśṇarāji, megharāji, maghā, māghavatī, vätaparigha, vätapratikṣobha, devaparigha, devapratikṣobha.
6.104 kanharätio nam bhamte! kim pudhavipariņāmão? aupariņāmão? jivapariņāmão? poggalaparināmão?
goyama! pudhavipariņāmão, no aupariņāmão, jivapariņāmão vi, poggalapariņāmão vi.
Are the black streaks, O Lord! the transformation of the earth, the transformation of water, the transformation of the soul or the transformation of the matter?
Gautama! they are a transformation of the earth, they are not at transformation of water, also they are a transformation of soul, also they are a transformation of matter.
6.105 kanharätisu nam bhamte! savve pāṇā bhāya jivä sattä pudhavīkāiyattāe jāva tasakaiyattãe uvavanṇapuvvä?
hamta goyama! asaim aduvä aṇamtakkhutto; no ceva nam badaraäukāiyattäe, bādaraagaṇikaiyattäe bädaravaṇapphaikäiyattäe vä.
Were all living beings, all living substances, all souls, all animate beings born in the past as earth-bodied up to mobile beings in the black streaks? Yes, Gautama! many times or infinite times they have been born, but not as gross water-bodied, not gross fire-bodied, not gross vegetation-bodied beings.
