प्रवचनसार
In the substance (dravya), which is established in own nature and whose differentia is existence, ‘sať or that which exists, undergoes transformation from one quality (guņa) to another quality (guņa). Lord Jina has expounded that the modes-ofqualities (guņaparyāya) in the substance (dravya), therefore, are nothing but the substance (dravya).
Explanatory Note: Single substance has modes (paryaya) known as the modes-of-qualities (guņaparyāya). The quality (guņa) of mango changes from green to yellow due to its transformation over time. Although there is transformation in the quality (guņa) of the mango, still it is the same substance (dravya), mango. There is difference in the two states due to change in the modes-of-qualities (guņaparyāya) but the substance (dravya) remains the same. There is the origination (utpāda) of yellowness, destruction (vyaya) of greenness, and permanence (dhrauvya) of mangoness but these three are not distinct from the substance (dravya) - mango. The substance (dravya) experiences origination (utpāda) with respect to its new mode (paryāya), destruction (vyaya) with respect to its prior mode (paryāya), and permanence (dhrauvya) with respect to its substantiveness (dravyatva), still these three phenomena are not separable from the substance (dravya) itself. Such is the nature of origination (utpāda), destruction (vyaya), and permanence (dhrauvya) in respect of modes-of-qualities (guņaparyāya).
