Q. 71. Bhante ! Do the Vaimānikas know and see that the omniscient holds a developed mind and a developed expression ?
A. 71. Gautama ! Some of them know and see, but some others do not know and see.
Q. 72. How is it so,...till some others do not know and
see?
A. 72. Gautama ! The Vaimānikas are of two types, which are, those who are deceitful and born with a wrong outlook, and those who are deceit-free and born with a right outlook. Of these, the deceitful with a wrong outlook neither know nor see, but the deceit-free with a right outlook know and see.
[-Why do you say that those who are deceit-free and with a right outlook,...till see ?
-Gautama ! The deceit-free with a right outlook are of two types, which are, those born without a time gap and those born with a time gap. Of these, those born without a time gap do not know, but those born with a time gap know.
--Bhante ! Why do you say that those born with a tine gap,...till know ?
