Bădara Uddhära-palyopama Having filled to the brim, a pit (or a granary) one yojana long and deep, as well as, one yojana broad with such bits of hair as may grow on a clean shaved head of an yugalisa of Déva Kura Ksétra, within a day or two or at the most within seven days so that they cannot be affected by fire, wind, or even water, we take off one piece of hair at every samaya. The time taken to thoroughly empty the pit for the granary) is Bādara (gross) Uddhāra-palyopama

Sukṣma Addhā Palyopama The period of time in which all the minute bits of hair are removed from the pit, one bit of hair being removed at an interval of one hundred (100) years, is called Sūkşma Addhā Palyopama.
