(A.K.Jain) The three values are not easily calculable except the omniscients. However, the values calculated in column (4) seem to be reasonable for easy comprehensibility for modern audience. However, this requires verification from canonists.
JSK-1, p.279 mentions six varieties of Āvalīs as below:
(1)
Invariant Avali (Acalāvali): It is the Avali time where there
are no karmic processes like bonding, fruition, pre-maturation etc. after new influx of Karmas with solar space points. It means induction period before bonding etc. start to take place.
Bonding Avali (Bandhāvalí): It is the same as Acalāvali
representing induction period for start of processes like bonding etc. after influx.
(3)
Fruitional Avali (Udayāvali): It is the Āvali where karmic fruition takes place after Acalāvali or induction period.
Second Avalior Counter-Avali (Dvitiyāvali or Pratyāvali): It is the Āvali period after the fruitional Avali.
