## [Verse 22]
**342.** The interval of the remaining karmas should be inferred by the seed-word (bija-pada) according to the measure of the karma.
**343.** The interval for one jiva.
**344.** The interval between the *mithyatva* karma's infinite-part increase and the *avasthana* (state) *sthiti-vibhakti* (state-division) is a short time for the inferior,
**345.** One *samaya* (moment) for the inferior,
**346.** And one hundred and sixty-three *sagara* (oceans) plus three *pali* (moments) for the superior.
**347.** The interval between the infinite-part increase and decrease, and the finite-part increase and decrease *sthiti-vibhakti* is one *samaya* for the inferior. The decrease is *antarmukha* (internal moment).
**348.** The superior interval is an infinite number of *puggala* (atoms) transformations.
**349.** The interval between the infinite-part decrease *sthiti-vibhakti* is *antarmukha* for both the inferior and superior.
**350.** The interval between the infinite-part decrease *sthiti-vibhakti* is one *samaya* for the inferior.
**351.** The superior interval is *antarmukha*.
**352.** The interval of the remaining karmas should be inferred by the seed-word (bija-pada) according to the measure of the karma.
**Explanation:** The reason for this is that when the *sthiti-vibhakti* is done with the inferior state, which is either *bhuja* (arm) or *alpa* (lesser), the inferior time is one *samaya* and the superior time is *antarmukha*, as per the sutra.
**Churnisutra:** Just as the inferior and superior times for the infinite-part decrease and increase of the *mithyatva* karma have been explained, in the same way, the inferior and superior times for the decrease and increase of the remaining karmas should be known by this appropriate seed-word. ||342||
**Churnisutra:** The interval related to the increase, decrease, etc., is explained with respect to one jiva. How much is the interval between the infinite-part increase of the *mithyatva* karma and the *avasthana* *sthiti-vibhakti*? The inferior interval is one *samaya*. ||343-345||
**Explanation:** Because, when the infinite-part increase and *avasthana* are separated by two jivas, and the second jiva goes to the opposite of the desired state in the second *samaya*, and then returns to the desired state in the third *samaya*, an interval of one *samaya* is found.
**Churnisutra:** The superior interval is one hundred and sixty-three *sagara* plus three *pali*. ||346||
**Explanation:** The reason for this is that when the jiva, which has changed its state, attains the interval with the superior time of the infinite-part decrease and finite-part decrease of the *mithyatva* karma, and then returns to the desired state, the superior interval time mentioned in the sutra is found.
**Churnisutra:** The inferior interval of the finite-part increase and finite-part increase *sthiti-vibhakti* of the *mithyatva* karma is one *samaya*. The inferior interval of the finite-part decrease and finite-part decrease *sthiti-vibhakti* is *antarmukha*. The superior interval of all these *sthiti-vibhakti* is an infinite number of *puggala* transformations. ||347-348||
**Churnisutra:** The inferior and superior interval of the infinite-part decrease *sthiti-vibhakti* of the *mithyatva* karma is *antarmukha*. The inferior interval of the infinite-part decrease *sthiti-vibhakti* is one *samaya* and the superior interval is *antarmukha*. In the same way, the interval of the increase and decrease of the remaining karmas should also be inferred by this appropriate seed-word. ||349-352||
