## 282] [The Sutra on the Approach of the Soul (Jiva) remains / The meaning of "Kayasthiti" is - to remain in the general or specific form of the soul, which is the intended synonym / In "Bhavasthiti," the state of the present existence is assumed, and in "Kayasthiti," the state is intended as long as the soul remains with its life-form synonym! In the present context, the Kayasthiti of the soul is asked. The one who sustains life is the soul. There are two types of life - Dravya-pran and Bhava-pran / Five senses, mind-speech-body these three forces, lifespan and breathing, these ten are Dravya-pran, and knowledge, perception, happiness, and vitality, these four are Bhava-pran / Here, both types of life are taken / Therefore, the meaning of the question is - how long does the soul remain in the form of life, in terms of sustaining life? The Lord answered that the soul remains in the form of life for all time. It remains alive in the worldly state by taking Dravya-Bhava-pran, and in the liberated state by taking Bhava-pran. Therefore, it remains in the form of life for all time. There is not a single moment when the soul is devoid of this state of life / Or, the word "Jiva" here does not refer to a specific soul, but to the soul in general / Therefore, there is no fault in considering life-sustaining as the characteristic of the soul. That is, the soul remains in the form of the soul. It has always lived, lives, and will continue to live. Thus, Kayasthiti is said in relation to the general soul, taking the soul / Similarly, in the case of the Earth-body (Prithvi-kaya) etc., the general meaning should be understood. The Earth-body will also always remain in the form of the Earth-body, generally, there will never be a time when there will be no Earth-bodied beings. Therefore, their Kayasthiti is said to be for all time / Thus, the way Kayasthiti is said in the eighteenth "Kayasthiti" word of the understanding through the doors of motion, senses, body, etc., should be said here / These doors are twenty-two: 1. Soul, 2. Motion, 3. Senses, 4. Body, 5. Yoga, 6. Vedas, 7. Passions, 8. Leshya, 9. Rightness, 10. Knowledge, 11. Perception, 12. Restraint, 13. Use, 14. Food, 15. Speaker, 16. Protection, 17. Sufficient, 18. Subtle, 19. Knower, 20. Existence-Proving, 21. Existing-Body, and 22. Ultimate / Thus, the Sutras related to Water-body (Ap), Fire-body (Tejas), Air-body (Vayu), Plant-body (Vanaspati), and Animal-body (Trasa-kaya) should also be understood like the Earth-body. The statement related to the non-attachment is 101-2. "O Venerable! For how long is the Earth-body (Padappanna-puthvikaiya)?" "Go-yama!
