## Gatha 364-397
## Jnanamargana/485
This is an excellent understanding of the infinite-fold Badratejaskaayika Paryapta. From the excellent understanding, the inferior understanding is reduced, and a single form of the inferior understanding is projected into the remaining, multiplying the general Tejaskaayika amount, resulting in the Shalaaka amount of the substance, space, time, and emotion of the Paravaadhi. This should be established separately. When the excellent substance of the Desavaadhi is divided equally (by Dhruvahaar) from the existing rare, it contains the inferior substance of the Paravaadhi in a single form. One form should be reduced from the Shalaakas. Again, when the inferior substance of the Paravaadhi is divided equally (by Dhruvahaar) from the existing rare, it contains the second substance alternative of the Paravaadhi in one division. One form should be reduced from the Shalaakas. Again, when the inferior substance of the second alternative is divided equally (by Dhruvahaar) from the existing rare, it contains the third alternative form substance in one division. One more form should be reduced from the Shalaakas. The fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh alternatives should be taken in the same way, as there is no particularity here. When the two extreme substances of the Paravaadhi are divided equally (by Dhruvahaar) from the existing rare, the final substance alternative is obtained. When the excellent (final) substance of the Paravaadhi is divided equally (by Dhruvahaar) from the existing rare, one atom is obtained, which is the subject of the Sarvaavaadhi. The Sarvaavaadhi is a single-alternative form.
As many Shalaaka amounts of the Paravaadhi are there, so many alternatives of the Paravaadhi are there, and so many times the substance has been divided by Dhruvahaar. In addition to the alternatives of the Paravaadhi, the substance was divided by Dhruvahaar once to obtain the atom. The two extreme alternatives of the Desavaadhi are Karman Vargana. Therefore, to obtain the soft, i.e., excellent alternative of the Desavaadhi, Karman Vargana is divided by Dhruvahaar. The extreme Dhruvahaar of the Desavaadhi and the Dhruvahaar of the Sarvaavaadhi, these two Dhruvahaars, when combined with the alternatives of the Paravaadhi, become two more alternatives of the Paravaadhi, proving Dhruvahaar. When these Dhruvahaars are multiplied with each other, the amount (number) obtained is multiplied by the atom, i.e., the square, to obtain Karman Vargana. When Karman Vargana is divided by this number, the atom, i.e., the square, is obtained. Thus, the amount of square multiplication, Vargana, and square is said.
The substance alternatives of the Devaavaadhi are divided equally by Dhruvahaar, becoming two. In the same way, in the remaining alternatives, there are infinite amounts. ||364|| In the middle of the Desavaadhi, the Tejaskaayika Karma increases with the increase in the number of alternatives. The Vargana of Tejaskaayika Karma is only where there is the Tejaskaayika Karma of the Tejaskaayika. ||365|| The one who sees this, knows that there are infinite amounts of Tejaskaayika Karma. There are infinite amounts of Tejaskaayika Karma, and there are infinite amounts of Tejaskaayika Karma. ||366|| From that, the increase in the number of alternatives, bound by the time of Karma, Karma, and Karma, is divided by Dhruvahaar, and it continues until it becomes equal. ||367|| 1.
