- अलोक में भी चली गई हैं। पूर्व दिशा जीवादि रूप है किन्तु वहाँ समग्र धर्मास्तिकायादि नहीं, किन्तु
धर्म, अधर्म एवं आकाश का एक देश रूप और असंख्य प्रदेश रूप हैं तथा अद्धा-समय रूप है। इस प्रकार अरूपी अजीव रूप सात प्रकार की पूर्व दिशा है।
Elaboration—The shapes and reach of directions and intermediate directions-East, west, north and south, these four cardinal directions in the shape of an expanding cone or the central beam of a bullock-cart (shakat-uddhi). The four intermediate directions (southeast, southwest, northwest and northeast) are garland shaped (pearl-string or muktavali). 41 Zenith and Nadir are of Ruchak (glow) shape. The concept is that at the center of the Meru Mountain there are eight Ruchak sections (glowing areas). They are in the shape of udders of a cow with four teats facing upwards and four downwards. The ten directions originate from this area. The four cardinal directions originate from two space-points and extend in steps adding transverse space-points in geometric progression (in multiples of two) up to the edge of the occupied space (Lok) and beyond into unoccupied space (Alok). In the occupied space (Lok) its extension is up to innumerable space-points and in unoccupied space (Alok) it is infinite space-points. This extension gives these directions the said expanding cone shape. The four intermediate directions originate from a single space-point and have _just a linear extension, without any addition of space-points, up to the edge of the occupied space (Lok) and beyond into unoccupied space (Alok). Zenith and Nadir originate from four space-points and extend, without any addition of space-points, up to the edge of the occupied space (Lok) and beyond into unoccupied space (Alok). The east appears as (abound in) jiva (the living) etc. but it does not have the Motion and other entities as the whole. It only has sections of these entities with innumerable space-points as well as the Time entity. Thus in terms of formless non-living the east is of seven types. ८.

[उ.] गोयमा ! नो जीवा, जीवदेसा वि, जीवपएसा वि, अजीवा वि, अजीवदेसाई वि, अजीवपएसा वि।
जे जीवदेसा ते नियमा एगिदियदेसा। अहवा एगिदियदेसा य बेइंदियस्स देसे १, अहवा एगिदियदेसाय बेइंदियस्स देसाय २, अहवा एगिदियदेसा य बेइंदियाण य देसा ३। अहवा
एगिदियदेसा य तेइंदियस्स देसेय, एवं चेव तियभंगो भाणियव्वो। एवं जाव अणिंदियाणं म तियभंगो। जे जीवपएसा ते नियमा एगिदियपएसा। अहवा एगिदियपएसा य बेइंदियस्स
