Differences in Birth and Yoni and Their Masters
Just as a fiery arrow consumes water droplets and moves on, similarly, during the interval of motion, the restless soul, through Karmic yoga, also accepts the karmic substances and moves toward a new location. 31.

The births of sentient beings can be classified as having consciousness, being cold, or being covered; the mixed ones also arise from these three categories. 33.

For this, they must take birth, but the births are not the same for all; this is what is explained here.
