Glaciers, Rivers, Water-falls, Plant-roots, Geysers, Snow, Hail-storms, and Clouds etc. The yonis can also be classified in 3 types, viz, living, non-living and mixed type. When a soul enters into dead-water, the non-living yoni is converted into living yoni. When it enters into living-water, it gets living yoni and as such may not require any conversion. 2) Kula-Kodi-Varieties of Water:Water has 7 lakh types of Families (races), called Kula-Kodî. One type of family, which is made up of a specific type of shape and taste particles, is termed as one Kula. If any race is made of certain shape and taste particles, which are different from that of the other one, it is treated as another Kula. In this way, different shapes and tastes of particles will form different types of Kula. Every type of water has many varieties of yonis and tribes. Every tribe will have special properties. For example, it is mentioned that hilly Himakula-tribe (a sort of hilly water) will have different type of quality and content from that of plain Himakula water. Warmness, contents and other peculiarities of water would differ from source to source. For example, waters from water falls, wells and rivers will differ from each other. A few waters of a particular type of tribe may act as disease inducing, whereas some other tribe may promote disease curing. For example it is found that water of a fall near Baroda has arthritis curing properties. 3) Life-Span:The range of life span of a water-bodied living-being is specified from a minimum of one Antara-Muhurta (less than 48 minutes) to a maximum of 7000 years. To be more specific, it has been clarified that in less than one antara-muhurta of time (48 minutes), just like earth, fire and air bodied living-beings, water living-being can have 12,824 life cycles. This figure of cycles can go up to 655,536 for incomplete or under-developed (Aparyãpta-paryãpta) beings. (Bhagavati 8/9, Jîvabhigama and 5* Karmagrantha, Gatha 39-41, of Swetambara Sect.)
