Transition and Reception of Group of Species: (69)
The transitional positions of 26 and 27 species undergo transitions, as a rule, in four positions of receptor of group of species: 22, 15, 11 and 19.
[This is related with the first spiritual stage. Other spiritual stages have also been considered by commentator in this respect].
The transitional position of a group of 25-species undergoes transition, as a rule, in two receptor positions of 17 and 21 species.
This 25-species group- based transition is found in all the four destinities and in three spiritual stages of wrong faith, lingering right faith and right-cum-wrong faith.
The transitional position of the group of 23-species undergoes transition in five receptor positions, as a rule, consisting of the groups of 22, 15, 7, 11 and 19 species.
This transition occurs among the mind-endowed five-sensed beings only.
