There are omniscients among gross beings and thus they follow the pattern of embodied beings. In other words they have different alternative combinations of five jnanas and three ajnanas. (5) Paryapt-dvar (state of full development)—There are omniscients among fully developed beings (paryapt jivas) and thus they have different alternative combinations of five jnanas and three ajnanas. Fully developed infernal beings have three jnanas and three ajnanas as a rule. This is because only those infernal beings who have come from non-sentient beings are devoid of vibhang-jnana (pervert knowledge), the unrighteous fully developed beings necessarily have that. The same is true for abode-dwelling and interstitial gods. Fully developed two to 4 four sensed beings (vikalendriya jivas) have two ajnanas (kinds of wrong 4 knowledge) as a rule. Fully developed five sensed animals have different alternative combinations of three jnanas (kinds of right knowledge) and # three ajnanas. That is because some beings have avadhi-jnana or vibhang-jnana and some do not. Underdeveloped infernal beings have three jnanas as a rule and different alternative combinations of three ajnanas. Underdeveloped two to four sensed beings with a scope of fleeting righteousness have two jnanas and others have two ajnanas. Underdeveloped righteous humans have individuals destined to be Tirthankars among them and they are endowed with avadhi-jnana; thus they have different alternative combinations of three jnanas. Underdeveloped unrighteous humans are devoid of vibhang-jnana (pervert knowledge), therefore they have two ajnanas as a rule. Underdeveloped interstitial gods who have come from the genus of nonsentient beings are devoid of vibhang-jnana, others have avadhi-jnana or vibhang-jnana (pervert knowledge) as a rule. Therefore, like infernal beings, they have three jnanas (kinds of right knowledge) or two or three ajnanas (kinds of wrong knowledge). As stellar and celestial-vehicular gods only come from the genus of sentient beings, they necessarily have avadhi-jnana or vibhang-inana by birth. Therefore they have three jnanas or three ajnanas as a rule. Beings (souls) that are neither fully developed nor underdeveloped are Siddhas. They are devoid of paryapti aparyapt naam-karma (karma determining the states of full or partial development). They have Keval-jnana (omniscience) alone. 4545454545454545454545454545454545454545454545454 Yacht F (3) ( 36 ) Bhagavati Sutra (3) Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
