## Introduction
* The sixteenth chapter, *Prayogapad*, discusses fifteen types of *prayoga* (experiments) in relation to the twenty-four *dandakavarti* (bound) beings. Finally, it contemplates the nature of five types of *gatiprapaat* (fall from the state of liberation).
* The seventeenth chapter, *Leshyapad*, has six *uddeshak* (objectives). The first *uddeshak* discusses the rights of *samakarma*, *samavarna*, *samaleshya*, *samavedana*, *samakriya*, and *samayayu*. The second *uddeshak* describes beings based on the six *leshya* (shades of karma) starting with *krishna* (black). The third *uddeshak* presents questions and answers related to *leshya*. The fourth *uddeshak* discusses the rights of *parinaam* (result), *varna* (color), *ras* (taste), *gandh* (smell), *shuddha* (pure), *aprashasht* (impure), *sanklishta* (complex), *ushna* (hot), *gati* (motion), *parinaam* (result), *pradesh* (region), *avagaadh* (understanding), *vargana* (classification), *sthaan* (place), and *alp-bahutva* (few-many). It also describes the color and taste of *leshya*. The fifth *uddeshak* explains the results of *leshya*, and the sixth *uddeshak* describes how many *leshya* each being has.
* The eighteenth chapter, *Kayasthitipad*, contemplates how long both beings and non-beings remain in their respective *paryaya* (states). The difference between *sthitipad* and *kayasthitipad* is that *sthitipad* considers the lifespan of the twenty-four *dandakavarti* beings in relation to one *bhava* (existence), while *kayasthitipad* considers the total lifespan of all *bhava* (existences) if a being continues to be reborn in the same *bhava* after death. Additionally, *kayasthitipad* considers the duration (state) of *dharmaastikaya* (body of virtue) and other *kaya* (bodies) in their respective forms. Therefore, it presents thoughts through the doors of beings, motion, senses, yoga, knowledge, etc., up to *astikaya* (body of virtue) and *charam* (final).
* The nineteenth chapter, *Samyaktva-pad*, discusses *samyagdristi* (right faith), *mithyadristi* (wrong faith), and *mishradristi* (mixed faith) in relation to the twenty-four *dandakavarti* beings.
* The twentieth chapter, *Antakriya-pad*, explains which beings can achieve liberation through *antakriya* (destruction of karma) and why. The term *antakriya* is also used here to mean the end of the current *bhava* (existence) and the attainment of a new *bhava* (existence) (or death). This type of *antakriya* is discussed in relation to the twenty-four *dandakavarti* beings. Only humans can perform *antakriya* in the form of the destruction of karma; this is described through six doors.
* The twenty-first chapter, *Avagaahana-Sansthaan* (or body) *pad*, discusses the types of bodies, their structure, evidence, selection of *pudgala* (particles), the relationship between bodies, their substance, region, substance-regions, and the few-many nature of *avagaahana* (understanding).
* The twenty-second chapter, *Kriya-pad*, discusses all beings in the world in relation to the five actions: *kayiki* (physical), *aadhkarnik* (authority), *praashik* (acquisition), *paritaapanik* (suffering), and *praanaatipaatik* (violence), and their various types.
* The twenty-third chapter, *Karma-prakriti-pad*, has two *uddeshak* (objectives). The first *uddeshak* considers which beings bind how many *karma-prakriti* (types of karma) from the *jnaanavaraaniy* (knowledge-obscuring) and other types of karma. The second *uddeshak* describes the *uttaraprakriti* (results) of karma and their binding.
