knows/sees
According to Abhayadevasüri, the clairvoyant in the first six alternatives (no. 1 to 6) is possessed of deluded world-view; so, he does not know. In the next two 2 alternatives (no. 7, 8), pertaining to the person who is viśuddhalesya, the clairvoyant, although possessed of enlightened world-view, is unattentive, so he does not know.14 According to Malayagiri, however, the clairvoyant (god) being vissuddhalesya, knows and sees, through his genuine knowledge and intuition. No obstruction in knowing/seeing is created by expansion of soul-units.s
The negation of knowing and seeing in two alternatives (no. 7 and 8) pertaining to the god who is visuddhalesya in the present Agama, and affirmation of knowing and seeing in the Jivajivabhigama signify diverse readings in the two synods on Agama texts.
yes
Why does the god who is viśuddhalesya, in the first two alternatives (no. 7 and 8) does not know and see, whereas in the remaining four alternatives (no. 9 to 12) he does know and see is an enigma that needs investigation. Perhaps, in order to resolve it, Abhayadevasüri explains asamavahata as 'unattentive'.
