[318] In the Sixfold World, the place of the living beings
[1, 9-9, 26] Those who are born in the womb and are born in the *parjanya* (sufficient) conditions, they are not born in the *aparjanya* (insufficient) conditions. || 26 ||
Even in the womb, those who are born with the first *samyaktvam* (right faith) are born only in the *parjanya* conditions, not in the *aparjanya* conditions. || 26 ||
Those who are born in the *parjanya* conditions, they are born only after eight years, not before. || 27 ||
_Even in the *parjanya* conditions, those who are born in the womb and are born with the first *samyaktvam* are born only after eight years, not before. || 27 ||
And so on, up to the *ardha-dvipa-samudra* (half-continent-ocean). || 28 ||
In this way, those who are born in the *ardha-dvipa-samudra* are born with the first *samyaktvam*. || 28 ||
For what reasons do humans with *mithyatva* (false belief) attain the first *samyaktvam*? || 29 ||
Humans with *mithyatva* attain the first *samyaktvam* for three reasons: some by *jati-smarana* (recollection of past lives), some by hearing the teachings, and some by seeing the *jina-bimba* (image of the Jina). || 30 ||
By "seeing the *jina-bimba*", one should also include seeing the *jina-mahima* (glory of the Jina, such as the birth and coronation festivals).
Devas with *mithyatva* attain the first *samyaktvam*. || 31 ||
