## Agam Sutra 28, Payannasutra-5, 'Tandulavaicharik'
Sutra Sutra - 88
There are 1,13,900 breaths in one night and day. Sutra - 89
There are 33,55,700 breaths in one month. Sutra - 90
There are 40,74,84,000 breaths in one year. Sutra - 91
There are 40,74,54,00,000 breaths in a lifespan of 100 years. Sutra - 92
Now, observe the decay of lifespan due to the waning of night and day. (Listen) Sutra - 93
Thirty Muhurtas are lost in a night and day, and 900 Muhurtas are lost in a month. But the ignorant do not know this. Sutra - 94
In the Hemant season, the sun destroys 3600 Muhurtas of lifespan. Similarly, it happens in the summer and rainy seasons. One should know this. Sutra - 95
In this world, 50 years of lifespan are lost in sleep in a normal lifespan of 100 years. Similarly, 20 years are lost in childhood and old age. Sutra - 96, 97
The remaining 15 years are lost due to cold, heat, travel, hunger, thirst, fear, sorrow, and various kinds of diseases.
Thus, 85 years are lost. Those who live for 100 years live for only 15 years, and not everyone lives for 100 years. Sutra - 98
In this way, in a fleeting human life, those who do not follow the fourfold path of Dharma, will have to regret it later. Sutra - 99
Even after being born in this land of karma, a human being, under the influence of attachment, does not know the supreme path and the nature of the self, as taught by the Jinas. Sutra - 100
This life is as fleeting as the flow of a river, as fading as a blooming flower, and even happiness is impermanent. All three are quickly consumed. Sutra - 101
Just as a net traps a group of deer, similarly, the net of old age and death traps humans. Yet, blinded by the net of attachment, you cannot see all this. Sutra - 102
O Auspicious one! This body is dear, beloved, beautiful, pleasing, attractive, delightful, strong, trustworthy, approved, desired,
