**[274] In the Praśāpanā Sūtra, the characteristics of the field, time, and action related to the non-discriminatory pain and the outburst of passions are discussed. In this present case, six points related to the outburst of pain are discussed: **
**(1) How much area is filled and touched (pervaded) by the pudgalas that are expelled from the body?**
**(2) How long does it take for that area to be expelled from the living being's atma-pradeshas (regions of the soul) in how much time?**
**(3) How many actions does the living being who is causing the outburst of pain take to inflict harm on the beings, ghosts, living beings, and entities that remain in that area?**
**(4) How many actions do those living beings take due to that living being?**
**(5) How many actions do that living being and those living beings take due to harming other living beings traditionally?**

**Solutions to the six questions:**
**(1) The living being who is experiencing the outburst of pain, the pudgalas that are expelled from his body, are the size of the body in terms of extension and thickness. They pervade all six directions according to the rule. That is, the pudgalas fill and touch an area equal to the extension and thickness of the body.**
**(2) The area that is the size of the body, in terms of extension and thickness, is filled and touched by the pain-producing pudgalas, as far as the area is pervaded, with the speed of disintegration of one, two, or three times. The meaning is that the area that is pervaded by the disintegration of three times at the most, is filled by the pain-producing pudgalas that are expelled from the atma-pradeshas. That area is filled and touched in the same amount of time.**
**(3) The living being expels those pain-producing pudgalas in a time slightly longer than the lowest antarmuhūrta and the highest antarmuhūrta. The meaning is that just as a person suffering from a severe fever expels subtle pudgalas from the body, in the same way, the living being experiencing the outburst of pain, expels the pain-producing pudgalas from the atma-pradeshas in the lowest and highest antarmuhūrta time, suffering from pain.**
**(4) Those expelled pudgalas cause harm to beings, such as the two-sense, three-sense, and four-sense living beings, like leeches, ants, flies, etc., ghosts, such as plant-bodied living beings, living beings, such as five-sense animals, like lizards, snakes, etc., and entities, such as earth-bodied, water-bodied, fire-bodied, and air-bodied beings, due to which the pain...**
