Actuated by an intonge partiality for his own doctrine, Kapila left off his divine functions, descended into the sky for the purpose of teaching the truth about his doctrine to his pupils, and remaining invisible in an excellent circle of five colours, and addressing Asuri and his other pupils, said:
"marurat Tar" rente "Avattā8 vattam pabhavai"; ityādi. "Perceptibility results from unevolved primordial matter." etc.
On hearing this utterance of the very essence of their doo trine, Asuri composed sixty works, and, thus, the lineage of pupils and of their pupils commenced. In this way, the creed of the Parivrājakas began to spread. Kapila also, greatly rejoiced in mind, went to his celestial residence, and began to enjoy various pleasures of the senses there.
