The complete lifespan of the Tirthankaras from Aristhanatha to the eighteenth Tirthankara, Arinatha, was divided into four parts. One part was the Kumarakala, and the remaining three parts were the time spent in the kingdom and in Samaya. [The Kumarakala of the last six Tirthankaras was 100 years, 7500 years, 2500 years, 300 years, 30 years, and 30 years respectively]. ||331|| Vasupujya, Mallinatha, Neminatha, Parsvanatha, and Mahavira were the five Tirthankaras who were child-celibates. Therefore, the time spent in Samaya is subtracted from their lifespan, and the remaining time is called Kumarakala. ||332||

Ushaadi Suvasa Sahasra Baras Chauddhasattarasa. Bos Chhadumatthakalo Chhachchiya Paumppahhe Masa. ||675|| Vasani Nav Supase Masa Chandapphahhammi Tini Tado. Chadu Tidu Ekkka Tidu Igi Solas Chauvagg Chaukdi Vasa. ||676|| Mallijine Chhaddivasa Ekkaras Suyade Jine Masa. Naminahe Nav Masa Dinani Chhappanna Mijine. ||677|| Pasajine Cha Umasa Varasavasani Vaddhamanajine. Ettiyamette Samaye Kevalananam Na Tana Uppanam. ||678||
