[402] [Prajñāpanasūtra 1458. Evaṁ jāva sabvaṭṭhasiddhagadēvē / Dāraṁ 5 // {1458] In the same way (from the deva of the Iśānakalpa) up to the deva of the Sarvārthasiddha vimāna (all the Vaimānika devas should be understood) / Fifth gate / / 5 / /
Discussion - The attainment of the Tīrthankara position - In this fifth gate, the question is raised whether a being who dies in hell, etc., can be reborn directly as a human and attain the Tīrthankara position without any intermediate births. / It is also explained that if that being does not attain the Tīrthankara position, what can it attain in the course of its development?
Summary - The conclusion of this entire section is that only a being who dies in hell or as a Vaimānika deva and is reborn directly as a human can attain the Tīrthankara position, not others. / The special meanings of the terms "Baddhāi", etc. - "Baddhāi" - like tying a heap of needles with a thread, the ordinary association of karmas (Tīrthankara name, gotra, etc.) with the soul is "Baddha". / "Puḍhāi" - like heating that heap of needles with fire and cutting it once with a hammer, the density that arises between them, similarly, the density that arises between the soul-regions and karmas is "Spṛṣṭa". / "Nidhattai" - arranging karmas in such a way that they can be applied in all karmas except for Udvartaṇakaraṇa and Apavartaṇakaraṇa is called "Nidhata". "Kaḍāi" - means "Kṛta" / "Kṛta" means to remove karmas, i.e., to arrange karmas in such a way that they are not eligible to be applied by all karmas. / "Paṭṭaviai" - ... - the arrangement of the Śonā is established with the rise of the karmas called Manuşyagati, Pañcendriyajāti, Trasa, Bādar, Payopta, Subhaga, Prādeya, and Yaśaḥkīti. "Nividaī" - the state of bound karmas as being in the form of three non-generators is the meaning of "Nivista". / "Abhinivitṭhai" - when the same karma is arranged as being a very intense generator of experience due to specific, more specific, and unique determination, then it is called "Abhinivista". "Abhisamannāgayaiṁ" - the karma's facing towards its rise is called "Abhisamanvāgata". / "Udiṇṇāi" - the karma's coming into rise, its attainment of rise is called "Udiṛṇa". That is, when karma begins to bear its fruit, it is called "Udayaprapta" or "Udiṛṇa". "No Uvasantaī" - the karma's not being pacified / There are two meanings of not being pacified here: (1) not attaining the complete absence of karma-bond, (2) or even after the karma-bond (Baddha) has been established, not being free from the agitation of the state of removal or rise, etc. / All these words are technical terms of karma-theory.
Meaning - The meaning of these terms in this context is that the being in hell who has bound the Tīrthankara karma in the past and that bound karma has come into rise, 1.
