GOMMATASARA.

which are produced are made up of fresh molecules, and are not divisions or offshoots of the physical, electric and Karmic bodies already possessed by the saint.
3. At the approach of death, a Karmic body is produced to go and sort-of-touch the place where the soul is to reincarnate.
4. At the approach of death of a saint in compassion, both the electric and Karmic bodies issue simultaneously for their different purposes.
5 to 8. Apply to celestial and hellish beings. Celestial beings never travel out, in the body in which they are born ; but they send out one or more fluid, etc. bodies by the operation of these 4 subclasses of body-making Karmas. Note that the hellish beings merely transform the matter of their own fluid body into another form. Their fluid electric Karma operates in anger only.
9 to 12. Apply to the Kháraka body. Somehow if it has not fulfilled its mission in its appointed duration, the saint issues out another Áháraka from the previous one. This is done by the operation of the 9th sub-class, Áháraka-áháraka. The 10th is, where an electric body is produced from the áháraka, e. g., to protect or extricate a saint from some trouble or difficulty. The 11th is when the saint is about to die and is in doubt also. The 12th is where the circumstances of the 10th and 11th co-exist.
13. Electric-electric. If one electric body has failed to complete its mission in its appointed time, then another is produced from the same.
14. When the Karmic is produced from an electric body. 15. The Karmic body produces another Karmic body. णलया बाहू य तहा णियंबपुट्ठी उरो य सीसो य । अद्वैव दु अंगाई देहे सेसा उवंगाइं ॥२८॥ नलको बाहू च तथा नितम्बपृष्ठे उरश्च शीर्ष च । अष्टैव तु अङ्गानि देहे शेषाणि उपाङ्गानि ॥ २८ ॥
28. The two legs and the two arms and the buttocks, the back, and the chest, and the head-these 8 are the only limbs in the body; the others are minor limbs (as the eye, etc., etc.),
सेवट्टेण य गम्मइ आदीदो चदुसु कप्पजुगलोत्ति । तत्तो दुजुगलजुगले खीलियणारायणद्धोति ॥ २६ ॥
