mngal gyi skabs lnga;མངལ་གྱི་སྐབས་ལྔ་;five embryonic stages;five embryonic stages;Kalala (nur nur po), arbuda (mer mer po), peshī (ltar ltar po/tar tar po or nar nar po), ghana (gor gor po or mkhrang 'gyur), and prashākha (mkhrang 'gyur or khang lag 'gyus pa). These terms are used for the five phases of embryonic development throughout the Indian and Tibetan traditions. Regarding the meaning of the first four terms, Roberts (2011, 686n1119–22) says: "Kalala is the technical name for the embryo in the first week. It is derived from kalana, meaning a "spot." In Tibetan it was translated as nur nur po, which can mean either an oval or oblong or liquidity. Arbuda (mer mer po), the shape of the fetus in the second half of the first month. The word can also mean a swelling or a tumor. Peśī is "egg" and also a piece of meat (ltar ltar po). Other texts have nar nar po. Ghana means a solid lump, while the Tibetan gor gor po is a viscid mass or lump." Although there is overall agreement about the terms, there are some inconsistencies both in the names used and the phases to which they are assigned. There are three frequently quoted sources in the nonmedical Buddhist texts: the Sūtra That Teaches Nanda about Abiding in the Womb, Saṃvarodaya Tantra, and Vasubandhu's Explanation of the "Treasury of Abhidharma." The latter two agree that the names for the first three phases are "kalala," "arbuda," and "peshī." Both list the fourth phase as "ghana" in Sanskrit;this was translated into Tibetan as gor gor po in the Saṃvarodaya Tantra, and as both gor gor po and mkhrang 'gyur in the Explanation of the "Treasury of Abhidharma." They also agree that the fifth phase is "prashākha" in Sanskrit;this was translated into Tibetan in the Saṃvarodaya as mkhrang 'gyur (which is the Tibetan term used in the Explanation of the "Treasury of Abhidharma" for the fourth phase), and as khang lag 'gyus pa in the Explanation of the "Treasury of Abhidharma." See the Saṃvarodaya Tantra, chapter 2, verses 17–18 and verse 21 (Dg.K. 266.7– 266b.3;and Tsuda 1974, 241). See the Explanation of the "Treasury of Abhidharma," chapter 3, commentary on verse 19ac and chapter 4, commentary on verse 53ab (C.T. 79:304 and 479;and Pruden 1988–90, 400 and 628). The Sūtra That Teaches Nanda about Abiding in the Womb states that the order of the phases is arbuda (mer mer po), kalala (nur nur po), peshī (ltar ltar po), and ghana (mkhrang 'gyur). It does not give a name to the phase of the fifth week. See Dg.K. 214.7–215.1. For other lists, see Garrett 2008, 93;Kritzer 2009;and Suneson 1991.
