## Gatha 250-251
## Yogamargna/327
**Question:** How can the 'Aharak' body be considered 'Prathamasamayatadbhav' (first time derived) in a special way?
**Answer:** This is not a fault, because it is the 'Avantaregaman' (transition) of the 'Jyotir' (soul) that has transformed from the 'Aharak' body form, excluding the 'Audarik' body. Therefore, it becomes the 'Prathamasamayatadbhav' (first time derived) special characteristic.
**Gatha 448-456:**
* It has attained growth through excellent growth.
* It has become sufficient through all sufficiencies by the smallest 'Antarmuhurta' (shortest time) period.
* Its speaking times are short.
* Its times of 'Manoyog' (concentration) are short.
* There are no 'Chhavi Chhed' (breaks in the image).
* It has remained for a limited time on the 'Yogayayamadhyasthan' (middle ground of yoga) after a little remaining time of 'Nivritti' (withdrawal).
* It has remained for a time equal to an innumerable part of the 'Pravali' (a unit of time) in the final 'Jivagunahan' (loss of soul qualities) 'Sthanantar' (transfer).
* It has attained excellent yoga in the extreme and double-extreme times.
* The 'Nivritti' (withdrawing) soul is the master of the excellent 'Pradeshagra' (region) of the 'Aharak' body in the final time.
**Explanation:**
The statement regarding the 'Audarik' body has been specifically stated. However, the special characteristic is as follows: It produces the 'Pramattasanyat' (distracted and controlled) 'Aharak' body and is of 'Aparayapt' (insufficient) yoga in 'Aparayapt' (insufficient) time. Otherwise, the 'Aharak' body cannot become 'Vridhi' (growth) through excellent growth in a short time. Secondly, 'Nisek-Rachna' (creation of the body) occurs only when it is in the 'Avasthit' (existing) form. It does not occur through 'Galitavasesha' (melted remains).
**Question:** Why is this known?
**Answer:** Because the time of 'Nirjara' (depletion) of the 'Aharak' body is said to be 'Antarmuhurta' (shortest time) in measure.
If it is said that it is possible for the 'Pradesha' (regions) deposited at the same time without a difference in time to melt in 'Antarmuhurta' (shortest time) without a time, it is not correct, because it creates a contradiction. Similarly, in 'Tithanch' (lunar days) and humans, the 'Vaifayik' (physical) body should be created through 'Nisek-Rachna' (creation), otherwise, there is a contradiction in the time of depletion being 'Antarmuhurta' (shortest time) in measure.
**Gatha 460:**
The soul who is the master of the excellent 'Pradeshagra' (region) of the 'Tejas' (fire) body, is a 'Purvakoti' (previous category) soul with a long lifespan, who binds the 'Ayukarma' (karma of lifespan) of the 'Naraki' (hell beings) of the seventh earth.
The 'Purvakoti' (previous category) soul with a long lifespan, who binds the 'Ayukarma' (karma of lifespan) of the 'Naraki' (hell beings) of the seventh earth, creates 'Nisek-Rachna' (creation) in a 'Gopuchchhakar' (tail-like) form from the 'Prathamasamaya' (first time) to the 'Antmasamaya' (final time) of the 'Tejas' body, which is 'Chhayasath Sagar' (sixty-four oceans) in measure.
It should not be assumed that the soul who binds the lifespan of the 'Naraki' (hell beings) of the seventh earth is the same soul who binds the excellent state of the 'Tejas' body 'Nokarma' (karma of the body). Instead, it should be understood that the 'Purvakoti' (previous category) soul with a long lifespan and excellent 'Yogabala' (power of yoga), who is capable of binding the lifespan of the 'Naraki' (hell beings) of the seventh earth while still having a portion of the 'Purvakoti' (previous category) division remaining, binds the excellent state of the 'Tejas' body 'Nokarma' (karma of the body). Otherwise, there is no benefit in making rules like this, which bind the lifespan of the 'Purvakoti' (previous category).
