Anantakāya 25 · what bursts from the earth
The fungi भूमिफोड़ा
Mushrooms and every fungus - bhūmi-ruha, what grows from the ground, bhūmiphoḍā, what bursts from it - are refused: a body with no seed, no vein and no node, up in a night.
The verses have one word for all of it; the Jīvavicāra has three, paṇaga, sevāla, bhūmiphoḍā, mould, moss and mushroom. Modern usage adds yeast, on the reasoning that it is a fungus, and refuses leavened bread on that account. It is the one tile on the view that is not a plant at all, and the marks fit it better than any plant: every one of the six is present.
The six marks, and the thirty-two Jīvavicāra 12: how to tell a common body from a body of its own Pravacanasāroddhāra 236–241: the thirty-two, in the verse's order; identifications are Williams' or marked not identified a tile opens its own entry where there is one, the list's entry where there is not a body of its own patteya - one soul, one body a common body sāhāraṇa - infinite souls, one body shown gūḍha-sira the veins hidden shown gūḍha-sandhi the joints hidden shown gūḍha-pavva the nodes hidden uneven sama-bhaṅga the break even threads ahīruha the fibre none dies chinna-ruha cut grows again tinted by part - roots and bulbs, shoots and leaves, creepers, fungus and bark and the unidentified - the atlas's grouping, for the eye; the verse gives none 1 sūraṇa-kanda elephant-foot yam Amorphophallus campanulatus entry 2 vajra-kanda a yam Synantherias sylvatica entry 3 ārdra-haridrā fresh turmeric Curcuma longa entry 4 ārdraka fresh ginger Zingiber officinale entry 5 ārdra-kaccūra fresh zedoary Curcuma zedoaria entry 6 śatāvarī wild asparagus Asparagus racemosus 7 virālī not identified 8 kumārī aloe 9 snuhī · thohar the milk-hedge spurge Euphorbia neriifolia 10 guḍūcī · galo the moonseed creeper Tinospora cordifolia 11 laśuna garlic Allium sativum entry 12 vaṃśa-karīra bamboo shoots entry 13 garjara carrot Daucus carota entry 14 loṇaka · lūṇī purslane 15 lodhaka not identified 16 giri-karṇikā not identified 17 kisalaya every new shoot entry 18 kaseruka a water-tuber Scirpus kysoor entry 19 thega a sedge-tuber Cyperus bulbosus entry 20 ārdra-mustā fresh nutgrass Cyperus rotundus entry 21 lavaṇa-vṛkṣa-tvak bark of the salt tree 22 khelluḍa not identified 23 amṛta-vallī a creeper 24 mūlaka radish Raphanus sativus entry 25 bhūmi-ruha mushrooms and fungi entry 26 virūḍha sprouted grain and pulse entry 27 vatthula a goosefoot green 28 sūkara-vallī a creeper 29 palyaṅka a leaf-green Beta maritima 30 komala-amlikā tender tamarind Tamarindus indica entry 31 āluka a yam Arum colocasia entry 32 piṇḍāluka a yam entry The six marks, and the thirty-two - The fungi highlighted Measurements and counts In the verses bhūmi-ruha Jīvavicāra paṇaga · sevāla · bhūmiphoḍā Today yeast, by extension
