Nature is called transient in relation to reception. The nature of the received substance is continuous, i.e., in the next time, it is naturally continuous. From this point of view, the time of continuous reception and nature is from the shortest two times to the longest innumerable times. ) The description of the outflow and reception-outflow of the language substances in the form of difference-non-difference 880. O Bhagavan! The living being, in the form of language, extracts the received substances, does it extract those substances as different (differentiated-separated) or as non-different (not separated)? [880 Ans.] Gautama! (A living being) extracts different substances, (and another) also extracts non-different substances. The substances that (the living being) extracts as different, those substances, increasing by infinite multiplication, increase and increase, touch the end of the world. And the substances that it extracts as non-different, those substances, going up to the innumerable immersion-categories, attain difference. Then, going further up to the innumerable yojanas, they attain destruction. 881. O Bhagavan! How many types of differences are stated for those substances? [881 Ans.] Gautama! Differences are stated to be of five types. They are as follows - (1) Khandabheda, (2) Patrabheda, (3) Chunniyabheda, (4) Anutattikabheda and (5) Utkattikabheda (Utkarrikabheda). [882 Q.] What is that Khandabheda? 1. (a) It becomes different by the Khandabheda of (a) the body, (b) the non-body, (c) the body, (d) the body, (e) the body, (f) the body, (g) the body.
