Are the soul of the elephant and the soul of the kunthu (a subtle insect) equal, O Lord? Yes, Gautama! the soul of the elephant and the soul of the kunthu are equal. Is the soul of the kunthu indeed, O Lord! in comparison with the soul of the elephant, possessed of less action, less urge, less influx, less nourishment, less excreta, less inhalation, less exhalation, less fortune, less glory and less splendour? Is the soul of the elephant indeed, O Lord! in comparison with the soul of the kunthu, possessed of massive action, massive urge, massive influx, massive nourishment, massive excreta, massive inhalation, massive exhalation; massive fortune, massive glory and massive splendour? Yes, Gautama! the kunthu in comparison with the elephant has less action and the elephant in comparison with the kunthu has massive action. The kunthu in comparison with the elephant has less urge and the elephant in comparison with the kunthu has massive urge. The kunthu in comparison with the elephant has less influx and the elephant in comparison with the kunthu has massive influx. Similarly, the kunthu in comparison with the elephant has less nourishment, less excreta, less inhalation, less exhalation, less fortune, less glory and less splendour. And the elephant in comparison with the kunthu has massive nourishment, massive excreta, massive inhalation, massive exhalation, massive fortune,
massive glory and massive splendour. 7.159 se keņatthenam bhamte! evam vuccai-hatthissa ya kumthussa ya same ceva
