Seventeenth door // 17 // Discussion: The seventeenth adequate door - the three sutras presented (Sutras 1383 to 1385) expound the time of continuous dwelling in their respective paryayas of adequate, inadequate and non-adequate-non-inadequate beings. Analysis of the time measure of all three - (1) The adequate being remains continuously in the adequate paryay for a short moment in the inferior and for a little more than a hundred oceans in the superior, because the adequate attainment can only last for so long. (2) The inadequate being remains continuously inadequate for a moment in the inferior and superior, after which it inevitably becomes adequate. (3) The non-adequate-non-inadequate being is a Siddha, and the Siddhatva paryay is sadi-ananta. 'Eighteenth Subtle Door 1386. Suhume gan bhanta! Suhume ti. Puccha? Goyama!
