The collection of verses says, "Without your vision, I wandered, time endless and vast; subtle moments in the midst of existence, countless particles of matter* in the cycle of birth and death; I wandered without understanding, in a trivial and extreme existence." - Shri Devchandraji. "Thus, we know many lands... dear friend! Look! The clever ones do not climb up the hand, dear friend." - Shri Anandghanji.
Thus, as the particles of matter are constantly changing, and the ripeness of the state of being is achieved, some beings are left behind in the count. And among those who are left behind, the last one who turns around is called the ultimate particle of matter. And the reason for this last turning around is the ripeness of the state of being, the ripeness of the culmination of the various types of existence. That is, when the state of being ripens in the being, when the appropriate qualification and eligibility ripens, then the bitterness of the poison of false belief disappears and some sweetness of the taste of attainment is achieved. It has been said that -
" योग्यता चेह विज्ञेया बीजसिद्धयाद्यपेक्षया ।
અાત્મનઃ સજ્ઞા ત્રિા તથમવ્યમયતઃ !”—શ્રી ગબિન્દુ, ૨૭૮
Meaning - The inherent, small type of qualification of the soul, in relation to the attainment of the seed and so on, is called the state of being. The life, that type of qualification, is called the state of being.
Thus, when the last particle of matter turns around due to the ripeness of that qualification, the state of being, then the pure mind, etc., is attained towards the Jina, this is the rule. At no other time, before or after, is this pure mind, etc., present. Because before it, there is a confused intention, and after it, there is a more purified intention, so say the knowers of the scriptures. Without appropriate qualification and eligibility, no work can be done. Therefore, until the being has not attained that type of qualification, the state of being, the being cannot attain the virtues. The attainment of the excellent seeds of devotion to the Lord, etc., is not a trivial or small matter, but a matter of great fortune of the being. That fortune is attained by the being when it has its last birth, because then the state of being, the qualification of the being, ripens, so the amount of bitterness of the poison of false belief decreases, and some sweetness of the result arises, so that an unprecedented devotion to the Lord arises.
