Patha 466-498
There are 576 types of Lesya (psychic color). The Taijasa (fiery) body has Tejalesya, and the Karmana (karmic) body has Sukhlalesya.
Doubt: Since all the pudgala (karmic matter) that make up the body have different colors, how can this body have a single Lesya?
Solution: This is not a flaw, as the description is made with reference to the predominant color. For example, a body with predominant dark color is called Krishnalesya. A body with predominant blue color is called Neelalesya, one with predominant red color is called Tejalesya, one with predominant yellow color is called Padmalesya, and one with predominant white color is called Sukhlalesya. Bodies that do not fall into these categories should be understood as Kapotalesya.
The specific details are as follows:
For Krishnalesya, the Shukla (white) quality is minimal, Haridra (yellow) quality is infinitely more, Lohita (red) quality is infinitely more, Neel (blue) quality is infinitely more, and Shyama (dark) quality is infinitely more.
For Neelalesya, the Shukla quality is minimal, Haridra quality is infinitely more, Lohita quality is infinitely more, Shyama quality is infinitely more, and Neel quality is infinitely more.
For Kapotalesya, there are three options:
1) Shukla quality is minimal, Haridra quality is infinitely more, Shyama quality is infinitely more, Lohita quality is infinitely more, and Neel quality is infinitely more.
2) Shukla quality is minimal, Shyama quality is infinitely more, Haridra quality is infinitely more, Neel quality is infinitely more, and Lohita quality is infinitely more.
3) Shyama quality is minimal, Shukla quality is infinitely more, Neel quality is infinitely more, Haridra quality is infinitely more, and Lohita quality is infinitely more.
For Tejalesya, the Shyama quality is minimal, Neel quality is infinitely more, Shukla quality is infinitely more, Haridra quality is infinitely more, and Lohita quality is infinitely more.
For Padmalesya, there are three options:
1) Shyama quality is minimal, Neel quality is infinitely more, Shukla quality is infinitely more, Lohita quality is infinitely more, and Haridra quality is infinitely more.
2) Shyama quality is minimal, Neel quality is infinitely more, Lohita quality is infinitely more, Shukla quality is infinitely more, and Haridra quality is infinitely more.
3) Shyama quality is minimal, Neel quality is infinitely more, Lohita quality is infinitely more, Haridra quality is infinitely more, and Shukla quality is infinitely more.
For Sukhlalesya, the Shyama quality is minimal, Neel quality is infinitely more, Lohita quality is infinitely more, Haridra quality is infinitely more, and the Shukla quality is infinitely intense.
Kapotalesya follows the rule of Ekasthana (single location), while the other Lesyas follow the rules of Dwisthana (two locations), Tristhana (three locations), and Chaturasthana (four locations).
Doubt: The scripture states that Bhavanatrika (celestial) beings have all six Lesyas during their lifespan, but this does not occur, as they lack the presence of all six Lesyas during their lifespan. If it is said that the Lesyas do not arise from their mental state (Bhava) but from the matter (Dravya), since there is a unity between Bhava and Dravya, this argument also does not hold, as the Lesyas that arise from the mental state (Bhavalesya) are the ones that acquire the corresponding Audarika (physical), Vaikriyika (transformable), and Aharaka (food-derived) karmic particles.
