## Five Special Points (Synonyms)
**How can there be infinite synonyms in a Pradesh-less atom?** - The atom, which is called 'A-pradeshi' (without space), is only in relation to dravya (substance). In relation to time and emotion, it is not A-pradeshi or Niransh (without parts).
**Atom is Chatasparsht and Shat-sthana-patit** - An atom has only four out of eight sparshas (touch). These are: Sheeta (cold), Ushna (hot), Snigdha (smooth), and Rooksha (rough).
**Even in Asankhyat-pradeshi Skandha (aggregate), these four sparshas are present.** Some Anant-pradeshi Skandha (infinite space aggregate) also have four sparshas. Similarly, from Ek-pradesha-avgaadh (one space filled) to Sankhyat-pradesha-avgaadh Pudgal (Skandha), all have four sparshas. Therefore, from these perspectives, the atom should be considered Shat-sthana-patit (having six locations).
**Why and how is a Dwi-pradeshi Skandha (two space aggregate) considered Heena (less), Adhik (more), and Taly (equal) in terms of Avgaahana (filling)?** - When two Dwi-pradeshi Skandha are filled in two-two spaces or both in one-one space, then their Avgaahana is Taly (equal). But when one Dwi-pradeshi Skandha is filled in one space and the other in two spaces, then there is Heena-Adhikta (less-more) in terms of Avgaahana. The one filled in one space is called Ek-pradesha-heena-avgaahana (one space less filled) compared to the one filled in two spaces. While the one filled in two spaces is called Ek-pradesha-adhik-avgaahana (one space more filled) compared to the one filled in one space. There cannot be more Heena-Adhikta than this in Dwi-pradeshi Skandha.
**Heena-Adhikta in Tri-pradeshi Skandha (three space aggregate) in terms of Avgaahana:** - A three-space aggregate is called Tri-pradeshi Skandha. It can exist in one space, two spaces, or three spaces. It cannot be filled in more than three spaces. If there is Heena-Adhikta in Avgaahana of Tri-pradeshi Skandha in terms of location, then it can only be one or two spaces, not more.
**Heena-Adhikta in Dasha-pradeshi Skandha (ten space aggregate) in terms of Avgaahana:** - When two Tri-pradeshi Skandha are filled in three-three spaces, two-two spaces, or one-one space, then they are Taly (equal) in terms of Avgaahana. But when one Tri-pradeshi Skandha is Tri-pradesha-avgaadh (filled in three spaces) and the other is Dwi-pradesha-avgaadh (filled in two spaces), then it is Ek-pradesha-heena (one space less). If the other is Ek-pradesha-avgaadh (filled in one space), then it is Dwi-pradesha-heena (two spaces less). And the Tri-pradesha-avgaadh is Ek-pradesha-adhik (one space more) than Dwi-pradesha-avgaadh and Dwi-pradesha-adhik (two spaces more) than Ek-pradesha-avgaadh. In this way, by increasing one space at a time, the statement of Hani-vriddhi (loss-increase) should be made for Skandha from Chatur-pradeshi (four space aggregate) to Dasha-pradeshi (ten space aggregate) in terms of Avgaahana. From this perspective, Heena-Adhikta in Dasha-pradeshi Skandha will be said as follows: When Dasha-pradeshi Skandha is Heena (less), it is Ek-pradesha-heena (one space less), Dwi-pradesha-heena (two spaces less), and so on till Nava-pradesha-heena (nine spaces less). And when it is Adhik (more), it is Ek-pradesha-adhik (one space more), and so on till Nava-pradesha-adhik (nine spaces more).
**Anant-paryayata (infinite synonyms) of Sankhyat-pradeshi Skandha (countable space aggregate):** - Sankhyat-pradeshi Skandha is Taly (equal) to another Sankhyat-pradeshi Skandha in terms of Dravya (substance). It is Dravya, therefore it also has Anant-paryay (infinite synonyms), because every Dravya has Anant-paryay. In terms of Pradesh (space), it can be Heena (less), Taly (equal), or Adhik (more). If it is Heena or Adhik, then it is Sankhyat-bhag-heena (countable part less), Sankhyat-gun-heena (countable multiple less), or Sankhyat-bhag-adhik (countable part more), Sankhyat-gun-adhik (countable multiple more)...
