**[All Beings Access]** [197] In the context of "least to most", the six categories of all beings are described as follows, considering the least to most number of senses, starting with the five-sensed beings, then the four-sensed, then the three-sensed, then the two-sensed, then the infinite-virtue beings without senses, and finally the infinite-knowledge beings with one sense. These categories are: 1. **Aabhinibodhik Jnanee** (Mati Jnanee), 2. **Shruta Jnanee**, 3. **Avadhi Jnanee**, 4. **Manah Paryaya Jnanee**, 5. **Keval Jnanee**, 6. **Ajnanee**.
The duration, interval, and "least to most" aspects of these categories are described in this sutra.
**Duration (Kayasthiti):**
* **Aabhinibodhik Jnanee:** The duration of this state can be from the least, which is an **Antarmuhurt** (a very short period of time), to the maximum, which is **Saadhik Chhiyaasath Sagaropama** (a period of time equivalent to 64 oceans). This should be understood as a period of time that is twice the duration of the **Vijay** (a specific period of time).
* **Shruta Jnanee:** The duration of this state is the same as the **Aabhinibodhik Jnanee**, because both **Aabhinibodhik Jnan** and **Shruta Jnan** are inseparable. It is said that where **Aabhinibodhik Jnan** exists, **Shruta Jnan** also exists, and vice versa. These two are mutually dependent.
* **Avadhi Jnanee:** The duration of this state is from the least, which is **Ek Samaya** (one moment), to the maximum, which is **Saadhik Chhiyaasath Sagaropama**, similar to the **Mati Jnanee**. This **Ek Samaya** should be understood as the time between the attainment of **Avadhi Jnan** and death or the time between the attainment of **Avadhi Jnan** and falling into **Mithyatva** (falsehood) due to **Pratipat** (a specific type of mental state).
* **Manah Paryaya Jnanee:** The duration of this state is from the least, which is **Ek Samaya**, because death can occur in the second moment, leading to **Pratipat**. The maximum duration is **Deshon Purvakoti** (a specific period of time), because the duration of **Charitrakal** (a specific period of time) is the same as the maximum duration.
* **Keval Jnanee:** The duration of this state is **Sadi-Aperyavasit** (infinite and without beginning). Therefore, this state never ends.
* **Ajnanee:** There are three types of **Ajnanee**: **Anadi-Aperyavasit** (without beginning and without end), **Anadi-Sapyavasit** (without beginning but with an end), and **Sadi-Sapyavasit** (with a beginning and with an end). The duration of the **Sadi-Sapyavasit Ajnanee** is from the least, which is **Antarmuhurt**, because after this period, they can attain **Samyaktva** (right knowledge) and become a **Jnanee** again. The maximum duration is **Anantkal** (infinite time), which is **Deshon Aparthpudgalparavart** (a specific period of time), because after losing **Jnanitva** (knowledge), they will definitely become a **Jnanee** again after this period of time.
**Interval (Antar):**
* **Aabhinibodhik Jnanee:** The least interval is **Antarmuhurt**. After this period, they can become an **Aabhinibodhik Jnanee** again. The maximum interval is **Deshon Aparthpudgalparavart**.
* **Shruta Jnanee, Avadhi Jnanee, Manah Paryaya Jnanee:** The interval for these categories should be understood in the same way as the **Aabhinibodhik Jnanee**.
* **Keval Jnanee:** There is no interval for this category because it is **Sadi-Aperyavasit**.
* **Anadi-Aperyavasit Ajnanee, Anadi-Sapyavasit Ajnanee:** There is no interval for these categories because they are **Aperyavasit** (without end) and **Anadi** (without beginning).
* **Sadi-Sapyavasit Ajnanee:** The least interval is **Antarmuhurt**, because after this period, they can become an **Ajnanee** again from a **Jnanee**. The maximum interval is **Saadhik Chhiyaasath Sagaropama**.
