Internal and External Kalàpas<br />

All the 21 råpa-kalàpas mentioned above occur internally in living<br />

beings. Itthibhàva-dasaka does not occur in males. Similarly<br />

pumbhàva-dasaka does not occur in females. For those who are<br />

born blind or deaf, cakkhu-dasaka or sota-dasaka should be<br />

eliminated.<br />

(Note that of the 28 types of råpa, itthibhàva-råpa is absent<br />

in males and purisabhàva-råpa is absent in females. So only 27<br />

types of råpa will be present in each species).<br />

‘Ajjhatta’ refers to ‘internal or within the individual’.<br />

‘Bahiddha’ refers to ‘external or outside the individual’.
