[480] The actions in the *Prajñāpanā Sūtra* are kept in mind, but the commentator has explained that the intention of these questions is that when a being binds karma through *prāṇātipāta*, how many actions are involved in the termination of that *prāṇātipāta*. The commentator has also clarified that one should understand three, four, or five actions in the order of *kāyikī* etc. Subsequently, how many actions does a being have in relation to one or many beings, and how many actions does a being have in relation to one or many beings in terms of *kāyikī* etc.? How do *kāyikī* etc. actions appear to another being? The commentator explains this as follows: Only the *kāyikī* etc. actions that occur in the present birth are not intended here, but the actions performed by other beings from the body etc. in past births are also intended here, because the being who did not accept the cessation of the past body etc., or who did not reject the body etc. (*vyutsarga* or *mamatvatyāga*), will be responsible for whatever is created from that body etc., or whatever actions other beings will perform through it, because he did not renounce the attachment to the body etc. *After this, the attainment of all five actions in the beings of the twenty-four *daṇḍakas* is described. After this, the co-existence of the five actions of *kāyikī* etc. in the twenty-four *daṇḍakas* is discussed. Along with this, the co-existence of the five actions of *kāyikī* etc. is discussed by describing them as *prāyojikā* (connecting to the cycle of existence). *After this, the discussion of being present or absent in the five actions in relation to one being in one being is discussed. *After this, by classifying the actions in different ways, five types of *prāramhbhikī* etc. are described, and which action is found in which being? This is mentioned. After this, the same actions are described in the twenty-four *daṇḍakas*. Then the co-existence of these five actions in beings is discussed. *Finally, the co-existence of these actions is discussed in relation to time, country, and region. *After this, the discussion is about which being can abstain from the eighteen *pāpasthānas* from *prāṇātipāta* to *mithyādarśanaśalya*, and in what context does abstinence from *prāṇātipāta* etc. occur? etc. 1. *Paṇṇavaṇāmuttam Mūlapāṭhaṭippanā*, pp. 351-352 2.
