39. RECO - The Newtonian 'Ether' is rigid, yet allows all matter to
move about it without friction or resistence, it is elastic but cannot be distorted, it moves, but it's motion cannot be dedected. It exerts force on matter but matters exerts no force on it, it has no mass nor has it any parts which can be identified, it is sad to be at rest relatively to the fixed star's, yet the stars are known to be in motive relatively to one another. -Dention. 40. REUNI-A hundred years ago the Ether was regarded as one. elastic body something as a 'Jelly', but much stiffer and lighter so that it could vibrate extermely, rapidly, but a great many phenomena culminating in the Michelson experiment and the theory of relativity, showed that Ether must be something very different from ordinary terrestrial substances. -Max born. 41. This does not mean that the Ether is abolished, we need and Ether in the last century it was widly believed that Ether was a kind of matter, having properties such as mass, rigidity, motion like ordinary matter. It would be difficult to say when this view died out...Now a days it has agreed that Ether is not a kind of matter, being non-material, its propertles are suigene ries (quite unique) characters such as mass, and rigidity, which we meet with in matter will naturally be absent in Ether, but the Ether will have new and definite characters of its own...NON material ocean of Ether.

42. Thus it is proved that science and Jain physics agree absolutely so far as they call Dharma (Ether) NON-material, NON-atomic, NON-discrete, continuous, co-extensive with space, indivisible and as a necesary medium for motion, and one which does not itself move. NOPSVI 'Prof. G. R. Jain.
