## Second Proposition: The State of Devstriyas
[There are 129 पूर्वकोटि states, as there is no lifespan greater than this due to the nature of the realm. Regarding the Dharma of conduct, there are states from the most inferior अन्तर्मुहूर्त to the most superior देशोनपूर्वकोटि.
_The state of अकर्मभूमिक manustriyas is described from two perspectives: one from the perspective of birth and the other from the perspective of संहरण. संहरण means to take a कर्मभूमिज woman to the अकर्मभूमि. / Just as someone traveling from Magadh or another country to Saurashtra, upon reaching Saurashtra and staying there, is called a resident of Saurashtra for all practical purposes, similarly, a woman taken from कर्मभूमि and संहृत in अकर्मभूमि is called a resident of कर्मभूमि.
From the perspective of birth, the state of अकर्मभूमिज women is देशोन (an infinitesimal fraction of a पल्योपम) for the most inferior and three पल्योपम for the most superior. / This should be understood in relation to the realm of हैमवत and हैरण्यवत, as this is the possible range of states there. The most superior state of three पल्योपम should be understood in relation to देवकुरु and उत्तरकुरु. / From the perspective of संहरण, the most inferior state is अन्तर्मुहूर्त and the most superior is देशोनपूर्वकोटि. If a woman is संहृत from कर्मभूमि to अकर्मभूमि and lives there only for an अन्तर्मुहूर्त or is संहृत back from there, then her most inferior state is called अन्तर्मुहूर्त. / If that woman has a lifespan of पूर्वकोटि in that realm, then her most superior state is called देशोनपूर्वकोटि.
_There might be a doubt that Bharat and Eravata realms are also in कर्मभूमि, and there too, a state of three पल्योपम exists in a solitary period, and संहरण is also possible, then how is देशोनपूर्वकोटि consistent for the most superior? The solution is that this is said from the perspective of कर्मकाल, even though it is कर्मभूमि. In Bharat and Eravata realms, in a solitary period of सुषमादि, a structure like भोगभूमि is created, therefore it is not कर्मकाल. In कर्मकाल, there is only a lifespan of पूर्वकोटि, therefore the stated देशोनपूर्वकोटि is consistent.
The state of अकर्मभूमिक manustriyas in हैमवत and हैरण्यवत is देशोन पल्योपम (an infinitesimal fraction of a पल्योपम) for the most inferior and a complete पल्योपम for the most superior from the perspective of birth. / From the perspective of संहरण, the most inferior state is अन्तर्मुहूर्त and the most superior is देशोनपूर्वकोटि.
The state of women in Harivarsha and Ramyakavarsha is two पल्योपम less than an infinitesimal fraction of a पल्योपम for the most inferior and a complete two पल्योपम for the most superior from the perspective of birth. / From the perspective of संहरण, the most inferior state is one अन्तर्मुहूर्त and the most superior is देशोनपूर्वकोटि.
In देवकुरु and उत्तरकुरु, the most inferior state is three पल्योपम less than an infinitesimal fraction of a पल्योपम and the most superior state is a complete three पल्योपम from the perspective of birth. / From the perspective of संहरण, the most inferior state is one अन्तर्मुहूर्त and the most superior is देशोनपूर्वकोटि.
The state of manustriyas in the Antaradvipas is an infinitesimal fraction of a पल्योपम less than a पल्योपम for the most inferior and an infinitesimal fraction of a पल्योपम for the most superior from the perspective of birth. / The implication is that..._
