2. (Q.) Bhante ! How many colours, odours, tastes and touches 5 Dharmastikaya (motion entity) has ?
[Ans.] Gautam ! Dharmastikaya (motion entity) is an entity (dravya) that is varna rahit (devoid of appearance or colour), gandh rahit (devoid of smell), rasa rahit (devoid of taste), sparsh rahit (devoid of touch), as 41 also arupi (formless), ajiva (lifeless), shashvat (eternal), avasthit (indestructible) and integral part of Lok (occupied space or universe). Briefly speaking, it has five attributes in context of dravya (entity), kshetra (space or area), kaal (time), bhaava (state) and guna (properties). In context of Dravya (entity) Dharmastikaya is one entity. In context of Kshetra (space or area) it pervades the whole Lok. In context of Kaal (time) it is not that it never existed, it is not that it does not exist, it is not that it will never exist; it existed in the past, it exists in the present and it will continue to exist in the future; therefore it is dhruva (constant), niyat (fixed), shashvat (eternal), akshaya (imperishable), avyaya (non-expendable), avasthit (steady), and nitya (perpetual). In context of Bhaava (state) it is devoid of colour, smell, taste and touch. In context of Guna (properties) it has the property of motion (it moves and helps beings and matter move).

४. आगासत्थिकाए वि एवं चेव। नवरं खेत्तओ णं आगासत्थिकाए लोया लोयप्पमाणमेत्ते अणंते चेव Si uita (a. a) qo317 3AETTI
३. जिस तरह धर्मास्तिकाय का कथन है. उसी तरह अधर्मास्तिकाय के विषय में भी कहना चाहिए: किन्तु इतना अन्तर है कि अधर्मास्तिकाय गुण की अपेक्षा स्थिति गुण वाला (जीवों-पुद्गलों की स्थिति # FEV/05) $1
४. आकाशस्तिकाय के विषय में भी इसी प्रकार कहना चाहिए, किन्तु इतना अन्तर है कि क्षेत्र की ॐ अपेक्षा आकाशास्तिकाय लोकालोक-प्रमाण (अनन्त) है और गुण की अपेक्षा अवगाहना गुण वाला है।
3. The aforesaid statement about Dharmastikaya (motion entity) should be repeated for Adharmastikaya (inertia entity) too, the only
difference being that in context of Guna (properties) it has the property $i of inertia (it rests and helps beings and matter to come to rest).
4. The aforesaid statement should also be repeated for Akashastikaya (space entity), the only difference being that in context of kshetra (space or area) it pervades the whole Lok (occupied space; universe) and Alok
