Bhagavai 5:4:103-107
- 245 :the mental clusters in the Omniscient Lord. The Omniscient Lord does not possess non-corporeal mind but he exercises the corporeal mind. When the Omniscient Lord wants to convey anything there is vibration in his soul-units which attracts the mental (material) clusters?' The gods of the highest heavens know those modes of the mind. According to the Vrtti, the domain of their clairvoyance is the cosmic cord. Even the person whose domain of knowledge is innumerableth part of the cosmos is the capable of knowing the mental clusters so it should not be impossible for the gods to know the modes of the mind, because the domain of their knowledge is the entire cosmic cord.2
Srimajjayācārya in his hymn addressed to Nami, the twenty-first tīrthankara, has referred to the above topic. It is, “The gods of the highest heaven ask question to the jina (tirthankara) and the jina gives annswer to them; the gods know through their clairvoyance the answer given by the Jina. O Lord Naminātha! you are my beloved."

5.107 anuttarovavāiyā ņam bhamte! devā kim udiņamohā? uvasamtamohā?
khīnamohā? goyamā! no udiņnamohā, uvasamtamohā, no khīnamohā. O Lord!' are the gods in the highest heaven with their deluding karma intensely arising, or suppressed, or annihilated? Gautama! they are with their deluding karma not intensely arising, but suppressed, not annihilated.
Bhāsya 1. Sutra 107
According to the Vrtti, the word 'deluding karma' stands for a conductdeluding karma concerning sex'. There are three states of the deluding karma, viz., (i) as rising, (ii) as suppressed and (iii) as eliminated. In the gods of the highest heaven, there is no intense rising of this karma, nor this karma is eliminated there, but the karma is in the state of suppression. Umāsvāti has characterized the Neck-dwelling gods and the gods of the highest heavens as devoid of sexual indulgence.
