**Regarding the difference in time between the attainment of *Sarvarthasiddhi* (perfect knowledge) for different beings:**
* **For those with *Samyagmithyadrishti* (right and wrong faith):** The difference in time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* is similar to that of *Sāsādan* (those who have attained the first stage of liberation). For one being, the minimum time is an *antarmuhūrta* (a fraction of a moment). The maximum time is less than half a *pudgala* (atom) change.
* **For those with *Asamyata Samyagdristi* (uncontrolled right faith) to *Aparamatta Samyata* (perfectly controlled right faith):** There is no difference in time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* for different beings. For one being, the minimum time is an *antarmuhūrta*. The maximum time is less than half a *pudgala* change.
* **For the four *Upasamakas* (those who have attained the second stage of liberation):** The minimum time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* for different beings is one *samaya* (moment). The maximum time is a year. For one being, the minimum time is an *antarmuhūrta*. The maximum time is less than half a *pudgala* change.
* **For the four *Kshapakas* (those who have attained the third stage of liberation) and *Ayogakevali* (those who have attained the fourth stage of liberation):** The minimum time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* for different beings is one *samaya*. The maximum time is six months. For one being, there is no difference in time. For *Sayogakevali* (those who have attained the fifth stage of liberation), there is no difference in time for different beings or for one being.
**8.109. Regarding the difference in time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* for those in hell:**
* **For those in hell with *Mithyadrishti* (wrong faith) and *Asamyata Samyagdristi*:** There is no difference in time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* for different beings. For one being, the minimum time is an *antarmuhūrta*. The maximum time is less than one *sāgaropamā* (ocean-sized) for the first hell, less than three *sāgaropamā* for the second hell, less than seven *sāgaropamā* for the third hell, less than ten *sāgaropamā* for the fourth hell, less than seventeen *sāgaropamā* for the fifth hell, less than twenty-two *sāgaropamā* for the sixth hell, and less than thirty-three *sāgaropamā* for the seventh hell.
* **For those with *Sāsādan Samyagdristi* (those who have attained the first stage of liberation) and *Samyagmithyadrishti*:** The minimum time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* for different beings is one *samaya*. The maximum time is an *asankhyeya* (incalculable) number of *palya* (a very small unit of time). For one being, the minimum time is an *asankhyeya* number of *palya* and the maximum time is less than half a *pudgala* change.
**Notes:**
1. *Sāsādan* can only be attained after falling from the *Gunasthan* (stage of virtue), *Upasama* (second stage of liberation), and *Samyaktva* (right faith). However, a being can attain *Upasama* again after a minimum of an *asankhyeya* number of *palya*. Therefore, the minimum time for *Sāsādan Samyagdristi* is an *asankhyeya* number of *palya*.
2. A being can attain *Upasama* again after an *antarmuhūrta* after falling from the *Upasama* stage. Therefore, the minimum time for the four *Upasamakas* is an *antarmuhūrta*.
3. The maximum time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* in hell is determined by the duration of *Mithyatva* (wrong faith) in the hell. The duration of *Mithyatva* is determined by the duration of *Samyaktva* (right faith) in the hell. The duration of *Samyaktva* is determined by the duration of *Mithyatva* in the hell. This is why the maximum time for attaining *Sarvarthasiddhi* in hell is determined by the duration of *Mithyatva* in the hell.
