[Thirty-sixth Chapter of the Samudghāta-pada] [277 [2] Just as it has been said in the case of the Asura-kumāras, so also here (in the following statements) up to the Vāimānika Devas (it should be said / ). The special point is that the entire statement concerning the one-sensed being (in relation to the Māranāntika-samudghāta) should be said ( / ) like the Jīva ( / ). The conclusion of the discussion is that the Jīva, being associated with the Māranāntika-samudghāta, separates the Pudgalas from its own Ātma-pradeśas (from its own body) which are within the Taijasa-śarīra etc., and the extent of the body's circumference (width) and thickness (thickness) is as much as the area and length of the Jīva's body, which is an innumerable part of an angula (finger) from its own body in the inferior case and an innumerable yojana in the superior case, is filled and pervaded in one direction. / Here it should be understood that the said area is filled and pervaded in one direction only, not in all directions, because the Jīva's pradeśas naturally move only in one direction. / It is possible for the inferior and superior Ātma-pradeśas to fill the same area. In the superior case, the area of an innumerable yojana in length is filled and touched in four times the time of the Vigraha-gati. / * After this, the statement of all the remaining facts related to the Māranāntika-samudghāta should be made like the statement of the Vedana-samudghāta, from the Nārakas to the Vāimānikas, all the statements up to 'five actions are required'. It should be said up to this point. The special difference here is that the area of a few thousand yojanas in length in the inferior case and an innumerable yojana in the superior case is filled and pervaded in one direction, and not in four times, but in a maximum of three times the time of the Vigraha-gati. / The statement is the same for all the Jīvas from the Asura-kumāras to the Vāimānikas, but it should be said that this area is filled and pervaded in a maximum of three times the time of the Vigraha-gati. The Vigraha of the Nārakas etc. is a maximum of three times. / For example, if a Nārak is present in the Vāyavya-dikṣā and in the Bharatakṣetra, and is going to be born in the east direction as a Pañcendriya-tiryañc or a human being, then in the first time he goes up, in the second time he goes from the Vāyavya-dikṣā to the west direction, and then from the west direction to the east direction. / In this way, the Vigraha is only three times, which should be understood up to the Vāimānikas. ' The Devas from the Asura-kumāras to the Iśāna-deva-loka are also born as Pṛthvīkāyika, Apkāyika or Vanaspatikāyika. When an Asura-kumāra with a complex determination is going to be born as a Pṛthvīkāyika in one part of his own Kuṇḍala etc., and he performs the Māranāntika-samudghāta, then 1. (a) Prajñāpana.
