tation. The second degree of vibration activity, which occurs to the bios with the same duration, degree of affection and degree of impartation intensity, is accompanied by an increase of innumerate part. Similarly the third, fourth, etc. degrees of vibratory activity must be understood. All these degrees of vibratory (Yoga) are governed by the four stations59 and are accompanied every time by an increase of innumerate part of Jaga śreņi.
Thus the second degree of impartation occurs to the bios having the same duration and the same degree of affection. Its degrees of Yoga60 must be understood as before, The three things are constant. But the degrees of Yoga are accompanied by an increase of innumerate part of the height of loka (14 rajjus). Similarly for the third, fourth, etc., degrees of impartation upto the limit of innumerate times the space-points of loka. The purport here is that the duration and degree of Kaşāya are at minimum. But the degrees of impartation (anubhāg) gradually increase upto the extent of innumerate times the space-points of loka.
For the increase of each degree of impartation there is an increase of Yoga to the extent of innumerate part of the height of universe. Similarly, the second degree of Kaşāya occurs to the bios having the same duration. For this also, the degrees of impartation and the degrees of Yoga must be understood as before. For the increase of each degree of Kaşāya, there occurs an increase in the impartation to the extent of innumerate part of loka. For the increase of each degree of impartation, there is an increase of Yoga of the extent of innumerate part of height of loka. Thus, gradually from the third degree of kaşāya upto the limit of innumerate times the space--units of loka is to be understood. Similary for the increase of one instant to minimum duration is ascertained. Then for every duration, with the increase of one instant at a time, upto maximum limit of thirty sāgaropama koțā koţi is reached, the degrees of kaşāya etc. is ascertained. Increase & decrease in six stations & four stations ( which exclude infiniterimal part and infinite times). This is to be ascertained for all types and subtypes of karmas. All these combined constitute the cycle of phase61 (bhāva ).
59. As described above. 60. Yoga is the vibratory activity of mind, larynx, and body limbs. Kaşāya
is the activity of affection, Yoga is kinetic or tends to be kinetic, where as kaşāya (Moha disposition) is potential or tends to be potential.
Moha is divided into vision (delusion) and disposition. 61. For details of other cycles of particular remaining changes, of. Reality;
