THE SERIAL OF COUNTING (GAŅAŅĀŅU PUVVI)
This is the serial from the first.
204 [3] Then what is the serial from the last? The serial from the last is (as follows, which is the reverse of the above): dasakoḍisaya (thousand koti),...up to... ega (one).
This is the serial from the last.
204 [4]. Then what is the non-serial? The non-serial (in the above case is obtained by) deducting 2 (two) from (the total number of the permutations of) the series of the collection of thousand koti numbers, (the total number of permutations being obtained) by the mutual multiplication of the consecutive numbers beginning from 1 (one) (and ending in thousand koți).
This is the non-serial. This is the serial of counting.
205 [1]. Then what is the serial of configuration' (of jiva with five sense-organs) ? The serial of configuration is stated to be threefold, viz.
(i) the serial from the first, (ii) the serial from the last, (iii) the non-serial.

205 [2]. Then what is the serial from the first? The serial from the first is (as follows):
(i) samacauramsa (symmetrical), (ii) niggohamamḍala (symmetrical in the upper part), (iii) sădi (symmetrical below the navel), (iv) khujja (hunchbacked), (v) vāmaṇa (dwarfish), and (vi) humḍa
(unsymmetrical).
This it the serial from the first.
205 [3]. Then what is the serial from the last? The serial from the last is (as follows, which is the reverse of the above): (vi) hunda (unsymmetrical)...up to...samacauramsa (symmetrical).
This is the serial from the last.
205 [4]. Then what is the non-serial? The non-serial (in the above case is obtained by) deducting 2 (two) from (the total number of the permutations of) the series of the collection of six, (the total number of permutations being obtained) by the mutual multiplication of the consecutive numbers beginning from 1 (one) (and ending in six).
This is the non-serial. This is the serial of configuration (of jiva with five sense-organs).
