șin means 'culpable') with a quantity of life of thirteen sāgaro
vamas.
Kibbisiya : the lowest class of G, Tattv. IV 4; cf. Uvav. 117; cf. also kibbisiya in I 26.
2 (488b) Mv. informs Goy. of Jamāli's rebirth as a Kibbisiya.
26 (488b) There are three kinds of Kibbisiyas whose resp. quantities of life are three paliovamas, three sāgarovamas and thirteen sāgarovamas. Their abodes, karmic origin (also applied to Jamāli's case) and further rebirths. Some of them will and some will not attain liberation.
2h (489b) After four or five rebirths in the species AMG Jamāli will attain liberation. * *
34. PURISA.
1a (4902) * He who kills a human being (p uris a) or an animal (āsa etc.), even if he wants to kill only (aham egam ... haņāmi) that human being or that animal, also kills a number of other beings (plur.: no-purise, no-āse ; also anegā jīvā) [that dwell on the victim's body or in his blood etc., Abhay.]. He who kills a rishi (isi), even if he wants to kill only that rishi, also kills an infinite number of other beings (no-isim, anante jīve).
o jivas are killed by him who kills a rishi-the word isi is rather remarkable -'because his death means the end of other people's) abstinence from killing o beings (mytasya tasya virater abhāvenânanta-jiva-ghātakatva-bhāvāt, Abhay.), or because a rishi, when alive, enlightens many beings which, after having reached liberation, do not kill co beings.'
1b (490b) He who kills a human being or an animal necessarily (niyamā) is prompted (puttha 'touched') by hostility (vera) to his victim and occasionally also by hostility to one or several other beings. The last case necessarily (niyamā) arises with him who kills a rishi.
2a (491b) Earth-, water-, fire- and wind-beings and plants
