Beginning with this verse, there are four basic verses to describe the process of destruction through IR, experiencing or transition. There are 12 kinds of intensity reductions. They could be experienced, and / or transited before destruction. The term 'similar" (Sadrša) means pre-maturation of intensities in the form of one variform only. The term 'dissimilar' (A-sadssa) means pre-maturation of intensities in the form of many variforms (of Karma-points). The entry at the later point is in dissimilar form only. This verse deals with augmentation process. It is stated that the individual undertaking and experiencing atomisation or leaning does not augment the duration and intensity of Karmas. The process of augmentation is not possible in case of karmic leaning
