~: 583
Gautama! with respect to the sense-organs of sound and colours, the souls are the subjects of desires; with respect to the sense-organs of smell, taste and touch, the souls are the subjects of feelings. For this reason has it been said, O Gautama! that the souls are both-the subjects of desires as well as subjects of feelings.

Gautama! it has been said so with respect to the sense-organ of touch, due to which they are subjects of feelings only. Similar description holds good for water-bodied, fire-bodied, air-bodied and vegetation-bodied beings. About the two-sensed beings, similar description holds good excepting that in their case, it is with respect to the sense-organs of taste and touch. About the three-sensed beings, similar description holds good excepting that in their case, it is with respect to the sense-organs of smell, taste and touch.
7.143 caurimdiyāṇam-pucchā.
goyama! caurimdiyā kāmī vi, bhogī vi.
The same query about the four-sensed beings.
Gautama! the four-sensed beings are both-the subjects of desires as well as subjects of feelings.
7.144 se kenattheņam jāva bhogī vi?
