Bhagavai 7:1:3-5
-: 495:(earthen) bowls blended together, one above other, with the first one upside down, the second one in the erect position above it and the third one again upside down above it). Such cosmos is expanded at the bottom, contracted at middle, and again vastly expanded at the top. At bottom it is of the configuration of one sitting in the posture of cross-legged; at the middle it is shaped like an excellent vajra (which is thin at the middle); and at the top it is of the shape of a vertically placed drum. At that time, in the cosmos expanded at bottom ....... up to vertically placed drum. The omniscient, adorable jina, possessed of knowledge and intuition arisen in him, knows and sees the soul, knows and sees the non-soul, and thereafter is liberated, tranquilized, freed, emancipated and makes an end of all suffering.
