:55. जेणोवओगलिंगो जीवो भिन्नो य सो पइसरीरं। उवओगो उक्करिसा-वगरिसओ तेण तेऽणंता ॥३५॥ (१५८३)
Jenovaögalingö jīvo bhinno ya so paisarīram i Uvaögo ukkarisā-vagarisað tena te’nantā || 35 ( 1513 ) [येनोपयोगलिङ्गो जीवो भिन्नश्च स प्रतिशरीरम् ।
उपयोग उत्कर्षा-ऽपकर्षतस्तेन तेऽनन्ताः ॥ ३५ ॥ (१५८३) Yenopayogalingo jīvo bhinnaś ca sa pratiśarīram i Upayoga utkarsa-pakarsatas tena te'nantah ॥ 35 ( 1583 )]
Trans.-35 That upayoga ( attention) by means of which the soul has attention as the characteristic mark, is different in every body. The upayoga has maximum and minimum. scales. Therefore they (souls ) are infinite in number. (1583)
टीका-येन ज्ञान-दर्शनोपयोगलक्षणोऽसौ जीवः, स चोपयोगः प्रतिशरीरमुत्कर्षा-ऽपकर्षभेदानन्तभेदः, तेन जीवास्त दादनन्तभेदा एवेति । तदेवं भावितं " नाणाजीवा" इत्यादि पूर्वार्धम् ॥ ३५ (१५८३)॥
D. C.-This soul has as its characteristic, upayoga ( attention) consisting of two kinds of knowledge, viz., differentiated and undifferentiated. This upayoga has infinite varieties; for, it differs from body to body, some having the utkarsa ( maximum ) upayoga, some having the apakarşa (minimum) upayoga and some having upayoga between these two extremes. Therefore the souls are of infinite kinds owing to the infinite varieties of upayoga. This has been already alluded to, in the first hemistich of verse 1582.
Now, with regards to happiness, misery, etc., s. e., exposition of the second hemistich of verse 1582, the author says: एगत्ते सवगयत्तओ न मोक्खादओ नभस्सेव । कत्ता भोता मंता न य संसारी जहागासं ॥३६॥ (१५८४)
