[400] [From the Prajnapana. [461-1 Pr.] Bhagavan! How many paryayas are said for humans in the time of the lowest guna? [461-1 U.] Gautama! They are said to have infinite paryayas. [Pr.] Bhagavan! Why do you say that humans in the time of the lowest guna have infinite paryayas? _ [U.] Gautama! One human in the time of the lowest guna is equal to another human in the time of the lowest guna in terms of dravya, equal in terms of pradesha, chaturthanapatita in terms of avagahana, chaturthanapatita in terms of sthiti, equal in terms of the paryayas of the Krishnavarna; and shatthanapatita in terms of the paryayas of the remaining varna, gandha, rasa and sparsa; shatthanapatita in terms of the four jnana, equal in terms of the paryayas of the kevalajnana, and shatthanapatita in terms of the three ajnana and three darshan, and equal in terms of the paryayas of the kevaladarshan. [2] And in the time of the highest guna, / [491-2] similarly, one should understand (the paryayas) in the case of humans in the time of the highest guna. [3] In the case of humans in the time of the non-lowest and non-highest (medium) guna, one should also speak in the same way about the paryayas / the special thing is that they are shatthanapatita in their own sthana. [462] Similarly, one should speak about the paryayas of humans who have five varna, two gandha, five rasa and eight sparsa. [463] [1] Bhagavan! How many paryayas are said for humans who are jghanya praabhinibodhik jnanis? [463-1 U.] Gautama! They are said to have infinite paryayas. [Pr.] Bhagavan! Why is it said so? [U.] Gautama! One human who is a jghanya praabhinibodhik jnanis is equal to another human who is a jghanya praabhinibodhik jnanis in terms of dravya, equal in terms of pradesha, chaturthanapatita in terms of avagahana, chaturthanapatita in terms of sthiti, shatthanapatita in terms of the paryayas of varna, gandha, rasa and sparsa, equal in terms of the paryayas of praabhinibodhik jnana, shatthanapatita in terms of the two darshan of sutnajnan paryayas.
