## Chapter 94: Description of the Nature of Annihilation
**627**
The [lower] part of the series of numbers is divided by the number of steps. 95. How is the difference described? 96. It is said that it is the same as the upward movement. 97. It comes and goes from the first and second positions, as long as the remaining [karma] is in the form of [udaya]avali and [prati]avali. 98. There is no series of qualities of false belief in the remaining [karma] in the form of [udaya]avali and [prati]avali. 99. There is a series of qualities of the remaining [karma]. 100. The part-measure divides the region. (The series of qualities divides the upper positions, which are multiplied by the number above the series of qualities. And for the difference, it establishes the region-tip, which is engraved there, in the second position, which is free from the obstacle of false belief, and also gives it in the first position, but not in the positions related to the difference in time.) The work done in this way is done, that is, the work of annihilation is completed. From the time of the completion of annihilation, the being is called 'upashamak'. 94-96 ||
**Special Meaning:** Although the being was also 'upashamak' before the completion of annihilation, the Churnikar has used this term here according to the Madhya Deepak Nyaya. According to this, it means that the being was 'upashamak' from the time of the beginning of downward movement until the time of annihilation, and will continue to be called 'upashamak' until the completion of the three divisions of false belief.
**Churnisutra:** From the first position and also from the second position, it continues to come and go until the [udaya]avali and [prati]avali remain. ||97||
**Special Meaning:** The meaning of the first and second positions has been explained earlier. The coming of the karma-region of the second position to the first position due to the cause of degradation is called 'agala'. And the going of the karma-region of the first position to the second position due to the cause of elevation is called 'pratyagala'. Although the word 'avali' is a general term in the sutra, it should be understood as 'udayaavali' in this context. The time period of the [udaya]avali measure above the [udaya]avali is called [prati]avali or dvitiyaavali. When, after annihilation, the state of false belief remains only in the form of [udaya]avali and [prati]avali, then the work in the form of 'agala' and 'pratyagala' ceases.
**Churnisutra:** When the [udaya]avali and [prati]avali remain, there is no further series of qualities of false belief (because at that time, there is no deposition of karma-regions outside the [udaya]avali). But there is a series of qualities of the remaining karma. (It should be noted here that there is no series of qualities of the ayu karma at that time.) At that time, from the [prati]avali...
