Q.56. Bhante ! When Harinaigamesi, the order-bearer of Sakra, transfers one embryo from, and to, the wombs of women, does he do so from one womb to the other ? Does he transfer embryo ( from one womb ), and place it into another through the uteras? Does he take out the embryo through the uteras and place it in the womb of another woman? Does he take out through the uteras and place it again through the uteras?
A. 56. Gautama ! (He) does not transfer the embroy from one womb to another womb, nor does he transfer it from the womb (to be placed in another) through the uteras, nor does he take it out through the uteras, and place it again through the uteras, but he takes out the embryo through the uteras and places it in the womb of another woman by touching the embryo with his own hands, and without causing any pain to the embryo.
Q.57. Bhante ! Is Harinalgameși, the order-bearer of Śakra, capable to take out an embryo from the womb of a with woman and place it into the womb of another woman the tip of his nail, or with his pore - hair ?
