A. 235. As aforesaid-he took birth by whole in whole. As there are four modes each for entrance and for exit currently taking place, so there are four modes for entrance and four for exit which have already taken place. (To be precise,) birth by whole in whole, intake by whole in part, intake by whole in whole, and (departure by whole in whole). These apply as much to entrance as to exit.
Q. 236. Bhante ! A being taking birth.among the infernal beings--does he do so by half in half, or by half in whole, or by whole in half, or by whole in whole145 ?
A. 236. Like the eight forms as aforesaid, even for halves it is necessary to state eight forms. The difference is that in place of reading “is born by part in part', one has to state, 'is born by half in half'. That's the only difference. Together they give sixteen forms146.
