In the same way do infernal beings die with a gap or continuously without a gap? ... and so on up to... Do Interstitial gods (Vanavyantar
Deus) die with a gap or continuously without a gap ? Do Stellar gods \i (Jyotishk Deus) die with a gap or continuously without a gap ? Do
Celestial-vehicular gods (Vaimanik Deus) die with a gap or continuously without a gap ?
(Ans.] Gangeya ! Infernal beings are born (upapaad) with a gap as well as continuously without a gap. ... and so on up to... Stanit Kumar y gods too are born (upapaad) with a gap as well as continuously without a gap. Earth-bodied beings are not born (upapaad) with a gap but continuously without a gap. In the same way, ... and so on up to... plantbodied beings are not born (upapaad) with a gap but continuously without a gap. All the remaining living beings, like infernal beings, are born (upapaad) with a gap as well as continuously without a gap. ... and so on up to... Celestial-vehicular gods too are born (upapaad) with a gap as well as continuously without a gap.
Infernal beings die (udvartan) with a gap as well as continuously without a gap. ... and so on up to... Stanit Kumar gods too die (udvartan) with a gap as well as continuously without a gap. Earth-bodied beings do not die (udvartan) with a gap but continuously without a gap. In the same way, ... and so on up to... plant-bodied beings do not die (udvartan) with a gap but continuously without a gap. All the remaining living beings, like infernal beings, die (udvartan) with a gap as well as continuously without a gap. The only difference is that in case of Stellar and Celestial-vehicular gods mention 'descend' instead of 'die' ... and so on up to... Celestial-vehicular gods too descend (chyavan) with a gap as well as continuously without a gap.
विवेचन : शंका-समाधान-यहाँ शंका उपस्थित होती है कि नैरयिक आदि की उत्पत्ति के सान्तर-निरन्तर आदि तथा उद्वर्तनादि का कथन प्रवेशनक-प्रकरण से पूर्व किया ही था, फिर यहाँ पुनः सान्तर-निरन्तर आदि
कया गया है ? इसका समाधान यह है कि यहाँ पुनः सान्तर आदि का निरूपण नारकादि सभी जीवों के भेदों का सामुदायिक रूप से सामूहिक उत्पाद एवं उद्वर्तन की दृष्टि से किया गया है।
Elaboration-A doubt - Birth and death with and without gap infernal and other beings has already been discussed before the topic of entrances. Why then the same has been mentioned once again ? The reason for this is that here it is given with regard to birth and death of all classes of living beings grouped together.
