According to Jain scriptures, the numerical places from shat (hundred), sahasra (thousand), shatsahasra (lakh) etc. to the topmost prahelika, the place where the multiplication by eighty-four starts for the first time is called **svasthan** and the places beyond it are called **sthanaantar**. For example, eighty-four lakh years is a **purvang**. This is **svasthan** and the second place of the **purva** name obtained by multiplying it by eighty-four lakh is **sthanaantar**. Similarly, the place obtained by multiplying the **purva** number by eighty-four lakh is called **trutitang** which is **svasthan** and the place obtained by multiplying it by eighty-four lakh is called **trutit** which is **sthanaantar**. In this way, from **purva** to the topmost **prahelika**, one should know fourteen **svasthan** and fourteen **sthanaantar** with the multiplication of eighty-four lakh.

**Panchashtasthanak Samavay** 400- Eighty-five **uddeshan** times have been mentioned for the **acharang** sutra including the **chulika**.
**Vivechan**- There are two **shruta skandha** of **acharang**. The first **shruta skandha** has seven **uddeshan** in the first **adhyayan**, six in the second, four in the third, four in the fourth, six in the fifth, five in the sixth, eight in the seventh, four in the eighth and seven in the ninth **adhyayan**. The second **shruta skandha** has five **adhikars** called **chulika**, out of which the fifth **chulika** called **nishith** is a form of **prayashchit** and hence not considered here. Out of the seven **adhyayan**, the first **chulika** of the remaining four **chulika** has seven **adhyayan** with eleven, three, three, two, two, two and two **uddeshan** respectively. The second **chulika** has seven **uddeshan**. The third and fourth **chulika** have one **uddeshan** each. The sum of all these (7+6+4+4+6+5+8+4+7+11+3+3+2+2+2+2+7+1+1=85) is eighty-five. The reading and reciting time of one **uddeshan** is considered as one and one reading and reciting time is called one **uddeshan** time. Thus, eighty-five **uddeshan** times have been mentioned for the **acharang** sutra including the **chulika**.
