## Chapter 45: Explanation of the Meaning of the Term "Status Transition"
**3.** How is the state (**thidi**) deposited? **4.** How is the state that is not yet entered into the **udayaavali** (period of rise) at the end of the **udayaavali** deposited? **5.** The state is deposited from the beginning of the **udayaavali** until the **avali** (period) is one-third complete. The state is not deposited in the remaining two-thirds of the **avali**. **6.** The state is deposited in many places in the first **udayaavali** period, but it is deposited in fewer places in the second period, and even fewer in the third period. **7.** This is called a transition of state in the **vidya** (knowledge) category. The transition of state in the **mula prakriti** (original nature) is called **mula prakriti** status transition, and the transition of state in the **uttar prakriti** (secondary nature) is called **uttar prakriti** status transition. The difference between these two types of status transitions is that the transition of state in the **uttar prakriti** occurs in all three ways: **apvartana** (downward transition), **udvartana** (upward transition), and **ati sthapana** (replacement). However, the transition of state in the **mula prakriti** only occurs through **apvartana** and **udvartana**. This means that the state of the **jnanaavaran** (knowledge obscuring karma) cannot be transformed into the state of the **darshanavaran** (perception obscuring karma). Only their states can increase or decrease. Similarly, the states of the **mohaniya** (delusion-inducing karma) - **darshan mohaniya** (perception delusion-inducing karma) and **charitra mohaniya** (conduct delusion-inducing karma) - cannot transition into each other. The states of the four **uttar prakriti** of the **ayukarma** (life-span karma) also cannot transition into each other. The state where none of the three transitions - **apvartana**, **udvartana**, and **ati sthapana** - occur is called **status non-transition**. **Udvartana** is also called **utkarshana** (elevation), and **apvartana** is also called **apkarpan** (deposition).

**Doubt:** How is the state that is to be deposited lowered and deposited into the lower states? And how is the state that is not yet entered into the **udayaavali** at the end of the **udayaavali** deposited? In other words, how does the transition of this state in the form of **apvartana** occur? || 3-4 ||
**Solution:** The first state that is outside the **udayaavali** is deposited from the first period of the **udayaavali** until the **avali** is one-third complete. It is not deposited in the remaining two-thirds of the **avali**. Therefore, the first one-third of the **udayaavali** is the subject of the deposition of the first state that is outside the **udayaavali**, and the remaining two-thirds of the **avali** are the subject of **ati sthapana** (replacement). In other words, the states of the first period of the **udayaavali** are deposited in the first one-third of the **udayaavali**, excluding the last two-thirds. Even in the first one-third, more space is given to the first period (**udaya**), less space is given to the second period, and even less space is given to the third period.
