1 antaramuhuurta of apuurvakarana = 10 samayas
1 antaramuhuurta of sthitighaata = 5 samayas
1. The first time the soul takes karma dalika from top part of nisheka say nos. 98 to 87 (in total
12 nisheka) and puts it in bottom part of nisheka.
2. The second time, higher quantum of dalikas is transferred from the top part of the nisheka to
the bottom part of the nisheka compared to the first time.
3. The third time, still higher quantum of dalikas than earlier time is transferred from the top part
of the nisheka to the bottom part of the nisheka
And so on, ad infinitum
In this manner, on an ascending scale, dalikas are transferred from the top part to the bottom part of nishekas. When the duration of sthitighaata - an antaramuhuurta lasting 5 samayas – is completed, not a single dalika remains in nishekas 98 to 87. Hence, within the duration of the antaramuhuurta = 5 samayas (the innumerably tiny part of a palyopama), the duration of 12 samayas sthiti of karmas are destroyed. This is known as prathama sthitighaata. Along with this, during every samaya, dalikas from the bottom half of nishekas are being experienced and destroyed in normal course. This is why when the antaramuhuurta of a sthitighaata (5 samayas) is completed, the karma dalikas of the lower 5 samayas (from 11 to 15) and the karma dalikas of the upper 12 samayas (from 98 to 87) are destroyed.
Therefore, when the first sthitighaata reaches completion, only the duration of 16 to 86 samayas remains in the nishekas. The other samayas are annihilated.
In the same manner, when the second sthitighaata reaches completion, the duration of the lower 5 samayas of the nishekas (from 16 to 20) and the duration of the upper 12 samayas of the nishekas (from 86 to 75) are destroyed. The sthitisattaa {duration of the nishekas that remains is from 21 to 74 samayas. This is when apuurvakarana comes to a close.
NB We have given only two sthitighaatas as an example. In reality, thousands of sthitighaatas occur in apuurvakarana.
(2.)
