KIRFEL, Kosmographie p. 337 seqq.: (1) for pāņa our text has āņā-pānu , (2) näliyā is missing; (3) to the terms puvva up to sīsapaheliyā '2' is added which means that we should read puvu'ange puvve tudiy'ange tudie adad'ange adade etc.; (4) also note the sequence auya nauya pauya.
4 (210a) The same as 1-3 in Lavana, Dhāyaīsanda, Kālôda and Abbhintara-Pukkhar'addha. * *
For the origin of the uddesa see Introduction § 12 (c); note that Mv. is addressed as saman'āuso in 3-4--Innermost Pukkhar'addha is the borderland of Samayakhetta (see II 9) beyond which measured time does not exist.
2. ANILA,
1 (2116) * a. As to intensity winds (a nila) are of four kinds: īsim-pure-vāya, patthā-v., mandā-v., mahā-v. These winds blow in all of the eight directions; in opposite directions the wind is simultaneous and has the same intensity. b. Winds blowing over continents (dīviccaya) and winds blowing over oceans (sāmuddaya) are not simultaneously of the same intensity; because these winds are different from each other the Lavaņa Ocean does not extend beyond its coast (tesim nam vāyānam anna-m-annassa vivaccāsenam Lavane samudde velam náikkamai). c. Winds blow because wind-bodies move of their own accord in a normal (ahā-riyam riyai) or an anomalous way (uttara-kiriyam riyai), or because Vāukumāras or oris set them in motion (udirenti) for some reason. d. Ref. to II 13-4.
2 (213a) With regard to the souls that inhabit them materials may be viewed in their original or in their elaborated state (satthâīya sattha-parināmiya). Thus many materials (food, metals, leather etc., charcoal, dung etc.) inhabited by earth- or by water-souls or by vegetal or animal souls in their original state in a way may be considered (... tti vattavvam siyā) to have become fire-bodies later on.
satthâiya sattha-pariņāmiya : transformed by means of some instrument (e.g. a mortar and pestle, Abhay.); cf. also VII 18 and sattha-parinaya in XVIII 104b. 3 (214a) The dimensions of Lavaņa etc., ref. to Jiv. [Div.]
