## Verse 261
## Yoga Margna/361
There are countless four-bodied beings among the five-sense-endowed transmigratory beings and the five-sense-endowed transmigratory-womb beings, which are equal to an innumerable part of the Jagatpratar. Or, multiplying the J.Shre. by the countless parts of the Palya-upam, the result obtained is the number of four-bodied beings, i.e., those who perform actions.
The number of Badar Agni-kayik Paryaya beings is equal to an innumerable part of the Dhanavali. An innumerable part of this is endowed with Vikriya Shakti. An innumerable part of the Palya is Badar Vayu-kayik Paryaya beings endowed with Vikriya Shakti. Both the Badar Vayu-kayik and Badar Agni-kayik beings endowed with Vikriya Shakti together are equal to an innumerable part of the Palya. The number of humans and transmigratory beings endowed with Vikriya Shakti is equal to the result obtained by multiplying the J.Shre. by the countless parts of the Palya. Humans and transmigratory beings of the Bhogabhumib and Karmabhumij also perform actions in the form of Uttar-sharira, separate from the Chakravarti Mula-sharira.

**Meaning of the Verse:** Beings with three Yogas are slightly more than the Devas. Subtracting the number of beings with three Yogas from the total number of beings, we get the number of beings with two Yogas. Subtracting the number of beings with three Yogas and two Yogas from the total number of beings in the world, we get the number of beings with one Yoga. ||261||
**Special Meaning:** The number of all Devas is slightly more than the number of Jyotishi Devas, because the remaining Devas, like Vanavyantar, etc., are equal to an innumerable part of the Jyotishi Devas. Adding the number of Narakas, Sanjee five-sense-endowed transmigratory beings, and five-sense-endowed humans to this number of Devas, we get the number of beings with three Yogas. The first square root of the Sucyangula is the number of Narakas, which is equal to the second square root of the Jagatshre. The number of humans is equal to the volume of a cloud. The number of Sanjee five-sense-endowed transmigratory beings is equal to the Jagatpratar divided by the square of 256 angulas multiplied by 6. Adding these three numbers to the number of Devas, we get the number of slightly more Devas.
**Doubt:** Why doesn't the number of Devas double, triple, etc., when these three numbers are added?
**Solution:** Because the number of the remaining three types of Sanjee five-sense-endowed transmigratory beings is equal to an innumerable part of the number of Devas.
