S. GAJAPATHI 3. Special Stationary Wave Motion
Let us now look into that how this special stationary wave motion confined to souls and matter cause their special attributes.
The special attributes of emancipated souls are eight. They are infinite knowledge, infinite perception, infinite happiness, infinite energy, subtlety, accommodation, absence of weightiness and lightness and non-injury.
The special attributes of matter are colour, taste, smell and touch.
As the stationary wave motion provides souls exclusively with consciousness and matter exclusively with sensibility, it is of two different kinds. They are special stationary wave motion of soul and special stationary wave motion of matter. Therefore the souls are conscious but remain invisible and matter is visible but remains unconscious. Because of the absence of both these types of special stationary wave motions in the other four substances, they all remain unconscious and invisible.
Stationary wave motion happening in the parts of the substance is technically called as Dravya Vyañjana Paryā ya. The wave cycles repeat every moment. There are countless moments in a micro-second. Hence the wave cycles of this wave motion are also countless per micro-second. These wave cycles set up every micro second countless vibrations in the parts of the substance and the disturbance carrying energy waves are known as Guna Vyanjana Paryā ya. For the sake of simplicity we shall call the Dravya Vyañjana Paryā ya as special stationary wave motion and the Guna Vyañjana Paryā ya as super energy wave motion. These two types function normally in all the omniscient souls, embodied and disembodied and abnormally in all the mundane souls. Likewise these two wave motions are normal in all the free elementary particles of matter and abnormal in all the elementary particles of matter within the molecules. Taking all these into
