**The amount of *pramana* (evidence) obtained by dividing the *paramavadhi* (ultimate) *vivkshit bhed* (intended difference) by the *sankalit dhan* (accumulated wealth) is the *pramana* required. By establishing the *loka* (world) in that space and multiplying it by itself, the *pramana* obtained is the multiplier in that *vivkshit bhed*. By multiplying the *deshavadhi* (spatial limit) *utkrsht kshetra loka* (excellent field world) by that multiplier, the *pramana* obtained is the *kshetra* (field) *pramana* in that *vivkshit bhed* of the *paramavadhi*. And by multiplying the *deshavadhi* *utkrsht kay* (excellent body, short lifespan) by the same multiplier, the *pramana* of the *jigati bhed* (related body) is obtained. According to this *karan sutra* (causality formula), the multiplier of any term can be obtained.**
**In this regard, Pravalakar has stated as follows:**
**"The half-sections of the *viralan rashi* (rare quantity) are the square-marks of the *utpann rashi* (produced quantity) which are composed of the half-sections of the *dey rashi* (given quantity). The half-sections of the *viralan rashi* are slightly more than twice the half-sections of the *tej kayik jivas* (fast-moving beings) because they are produced by dividing the quantity below the square of the *tej kayik rashi*. Their projection leads to an ascending path from the square of the *pradi* (beginning) to the *paramavadhi*. The slightly more than twice the half-sections of the *tej kayik rashi* only divide this ascending path by the square-marks of the *tej kayik rashi* and reduce it to half. By multiplying the square-marks of the *tej kayik rashi*, an ascending path above the *tej kayik rashi* is obtained. This is the *utkrsht kshetra* (excellent field) of the *paramavadhi*."**
**Gatha 422:**
**"The *pravali* (series) of *asankhyat* (innumerable) parts are the *pajjaya* (permutations) of the *jghanny dravya* (lowest substance). They are *asankhyat guna* (innumerable times) less than the *pravali* due to the *jghanny kal* (lowest time).**
**Gatha 423:**
**"From the *jghanny deshavadhi* (lowest spatial limit) to the *sarvavadhi* (all limits), the *dravya* is divided in order and the *bhava* (state) is multiplied by the *asankhyat* part of the *pravali*. Therefore, the number of terms of *dravya* and *bhava* are similar."**
**Special Meaning:**
**Dividing the *asankhyat* part of the *pravali* by the *pravali* results in the time of the *jghanny avadhi* (lowest limit) being only the *asankhyat* part of the *pravali*. Out of the infinite present permutations of the *jghanny dravya* (lowest substance) which is the subject of this, only the *asankhyat* part of the *pravali* permutations are the *jghanny bhava* (lowest state) due to the *jghanny avadhi jnana* (knowledge of the lowest limit). But the *pramana* (amount) of these present permutations is *asankhyat guna* (innumerable times) less than the *kal* (time). In other words, the number of *bhava* (present permutations) is the *asankhyat* part of the *kal*.**
**In the second alternative of *deshavadhi jnana* (knowledge of spatial limit), the *dravya* (substance) becomes less and the *bhava* (state) becomes more, but the *kshetra* (field) and *kal* (time) remain the same because there is no increase in them. Similarly, the third, fourth...**
