$ (3) A being that was woman in the past but non-genderic now is 41 fi called stree-pashchaatkrit jiva. The same is true for the terms purush
pashchaatkrit jiva and napumsak-pashchaatkrit jiva. Here the question includes 26 alternative combinations of singularity and plurality of these three classes of beings. There are six alternatives without combination, 15 twelve alternatives with combinations of two and eight alternatives with combinations of three.
(4) After that the question with eight alternative combinations related to past, present and future periods of acquisition of Iryapathik
karma has been asked. The answer to this has been given in context of i bhavakarsh and grahanakarsh. The acquisition of this bondage (of
Iryapathik-karma) during past several births by gaining the path of progressive pacification of karmas (Upasham Shreni) is called bhavakarsh, and doing that during a specific birth is called grahanakarsh.

This is about a being who had gained the path of progressive pacification of karmas (Upasham Shreni) during some past birth to acquire these karmas, he does the same during the present birth through destruction of karmas and attains liberation; therefore, he will not acquire any karma during the next birth. (3) Third alternative-in the past, and in the future, but not in the present. This is about a being who had gained the path of progressive pacification of karmas (Upasham Shreni) during some past birth to acquire these karmas, he does not do the same during the present birth but will do the same again during the next birth through pacification or destruction of karmas. (4) Fourth alternative-in the past, but not in the present, and also not in the future. This is about a being who had gained the path of progressive destruction of karmas (Kshapak Shreni) in the past to acquire these karmas and is at the fourteenth Gunasthaan at present, he does not need to do the same any more now or in future as he is destined to be liberated during this birth. (5) Fifth alternative-not in the past, but in the present, and in the future. This is about a being who did not gain the path of progressive
