## Gartha 70
**Solution:** This is not the case, because both the arising and the presence of the non-violent karmas of Arhants are found, therefore there is a difference in these two Supreme Beings.
**Sha:** Are the non-violent karmas, due to being half-burnt by the fire of white meditation, unable to function even though they are present in terms of arising and presence?
**Solution:** This is also not the case, because the absence of the body's decay is not otherwise proven, therefore the arising and presence of the remaining karmas like lifespan etc. of Arhants are established.
**Sha:** The function of karmas is the world filled with eighty-four lakh types of births, old age, and death. This is not found in the Arhant Supreme Being even with the presence of non-violent karmas, and the violent karmas are also unable to destroy the soul's death. Therefore, it is not right to believe in a difference in qualities between the Arhant and the Siddha Supreme Being.
**Solution:** This is not the case, because the arising of the lifespan karma, which is an obstacle to the soul's upward movement, and the arising of the vedaniya karma, which is an obstacle to the quality of happiness, are found in Arhants, therefore there is a difference in qualities between Arhants and Siddhas.
**Sha:** Upward movement is not a quality of the soul, because if it is considered a quality of the soul, then its influence will also have to be considered an influence of the soul. For the same reason, happiness is also not a quality of the soul. Secondly, the arising of vedaniya karma does not produce suffering in Kevalis, otherwise Kevalitva will not remain.
**Solution:** If this is the case, then let it be, because it is just. Still, the difference between the two Supreme Beings is established in terms of the difference in the presence of the subtle body and the absence of the subtle body, and in terms of the difference in location.
Thus, the first chapter called "Gunasthan Pra-rupana" in the Gommatsar Jivakanda is complete.
## 2. Jivasamaas-Pra-rupana
The general characteristic of Jivasamaas, with its etymology, is: "Those by which the souls are known, and their various types are understood, those are called Jivasamaas, which are the collection of those Dharmas." (7)
**Gathary:** Those specific Dharmas by which various souls and their various types of species are known, those Dharmas which collect the species, are called Jivasamaas. (7)
