## [165] The two-fold understanding of Sarvajivaabhigam is presented in this sutra, with its various aspects. In the previous sutra, two distinctions were made based on Siddhatva and Prasiddhatva. This sutra explains the duality of Sarvajivaabhigam based on:
* **Indriya-Anindriya** (Sensory-Non-sensory)
* **Sakayik-Akayik** (With Body-Without Body)
* **Sayogi-Ayogi** (With Karma-Without Karma)
* **Seleshya-Aleshya** (With Body-Without Body)
* **Savaidaka-Avaidaka** (With Knowledge-Without Knowledge)
* **Sakshayik-Akshayik** (With Karma-Without Karma)
According to the commentator, the mention of Seleshya-Aleshya and Sasheera-Asheera comes after Sayogi-Ayogi, while the original text has a separate sutra for Seleshya-Aleshya at the end.
These two categories of Sarvajiva have **Upaadhi** (with attributes) and **Anupaadhikrit** (without attributes) distinctions. Due to **Karmajanaya-Upaadhi** (attributes arising from Karma), the sensory, with body, with karma, with body, with knowledge, and with karma beings are called **Samsari Jiva** (worldly beings). While those without Karmajanaya-Upaadhi are called **Siddh Jiva** (liberated beings) as they are non-sensory, without body, without karma, without body, without knowledge, and without karma.
The **Kayasthiti** (state of body) and **Antar** (difference) of the sensory should be explained according to the **Prasiddhatva** (known) and the **Anindriya** (non-sensory) should be explained according to the **Siddhatva** (liberated). It is as follows:
**"O Bhagavan! How long does the sensory being remain as sensory?"**
**"O Gautam! There are two types of sensory beings: Anaadi-Aparyavasit (eternal) and Anaadi-Saparyavasit (with beginning and end)."**
**"O Bhagavan! How long does the non-sensory being remain as non-sensory?"**
**"O Gautam! It is Saadi-Aparyavasit (eternal)."**
**"O Bhagavan! What is the difference between the sensory and non-sensory in terms of time?"**
**"O Gautam! There is no difference in Anaadi-Aparyavasit (eternal) and Anaadi-Saparyavasit (with beginning and end). There is no difference in Saadi-Aparyavasit (eternal)."**
**"What is the difference in the non-sensory?"**
**"O Gautam! There is no difference in Saadi-Aparyavasit (eternal)."**
The non-sensory are few in number, while the sensory are countless, as the sensory beings include the plant life, which is infinite.
Similarly, the **Kayasthiti** (state of body), **Antar** (difference), and **Alpbahutva** (fewness) of the beings with body, with karma, with body, with knowledge, and with karma should be explained in the same way as the sensory and non-sensory.
However, the **Savaidaka-Avaidaka** (with knowledge-without knowledge) and **Sakshayik-Akshayik** (with karma-without karma) have special characteristics and require separate explanation.
It is said that the **Savaidaka** (with knowledge) are of three types:
1. **Anaadi-Aparyavasit** (eternal)
2. **Anaadi-Saparyavasit** (with beginning and end)
3. **Saadi-Saparyavasit** (with beginning and end)
The **Anaadi-Aparyavasit** (eternal) **Savaidaka** (with knowledge) are either **Abhavy Jiva** (non-liberated beings) or those who will not attain liberation due to the lack of necessary materials. This is because many **Bhavy Jiva** (liberated beings) do not become **Siddh** (liberated).
The **Anaadi-Saparyavasit** (with beginning and end) **Savaidaka** (with knowledge) is a **Bhavy Jiva** (liberated being) who is on the path to liberation and has not yet attained the **Upshama Shreni** (stage of liberation).
The **Saadi-Saparyavasit** (with beginning and end) **Savaidaka** (with knowledge) is a **Bhavy Jiva** (liberated being) who is on the path to liberation and has already attained the **Upshama Shreni** (stage of liberation).
After attaining the **Upshama Shreni** (stage of liberation), they experience **Avaidakatva** (without knowledge) in the **Vedopshama** (stage of liberation) and die in the **Apantaaral** (interval between death and rebirth) due to **Bhavakshaya** (destruction of karma) or fall back from the **Upshama Shreni** (stage of liberation).
**"Bhaavaavi Na Sihjanti Kei"** (They do not attain liberation) - This is the statement.
