:149: a retinue of army, when we say that “ This is a retinue ot army," there is only one application of mind at a time.
But when we apprehend each individual portion of it, by saying that “Those are the elephants," "Those are the horses", " These are chariots", " Here is infantry", " These are swords, pots etc." “ Those are helmets, armours, tents, flags, banners, drums, conches, camels etc. the apprehension of each individual portion requires a separate application of mind, giving rise to plurality of application. 145-146 (2440-2441) ते चिय न संति समयं सामण्णाणेगगहणमविरुद्धं । एगमणेगं पि तयं तम्हा सामण्णभावेणं ॥१४७॥२४४२॥ 147. Te cciya na santi samayam sāmaņņāņegagahaṇamaviru
