Verses 461-506
When there is a decrease in the lowest place of the *leshyas* and an increase in the lowest place of the *leshyas* above the lowest place, there is a *svasthana* transition. When there is a decrease in the lowest place of the *leshyas*, according to the rule, there is a *parasthana* transition. || 505 || Transition is in the form of an increase in the six places. The names and quantities of those six places have been mentioned earlier in the *Shrutagyan*. || 506 ||
Special Meaning - The places of origin of the *kasyas* are countless, meaning that there are as many places of origin as there are regions in countless worlds. Of these, the *asam leshyas* are the results of *samklesha*, and a countless fraction are the pure results of the auspicious *leshyas*. But generally, both *samklesha* and pure results are countless. In these *leshyas*, from the best to the worst and from the worst to the best, there is a decrease and increase in the six places. In the inauspicious *leshyas*, there is a decrease and increase in *samklesha*, and in the three auspicious *leshyas*, there is a decrease and increase in purity. That is, when there is a gradual increase in *samklesha*, there is a transformation from the lowest part of the *kapota leshya* to the middle part, and from the middle part to the highest part, then again from the lowest, middle, and highest parts of the *nila leshya*, and then again from the lowest, middle, and highest parts of the *krishna leshya*. Similarly, when there is a gradual increase in purity, there is a transformation from the lowest part of the *pita leshya* to the middle part, and then from the middle part to the highest part, then again from the lowest, middle, and highest parts of the *padma leshya*, and then again from the lowest, middle, and highest parts of the *shukla leshya*. When there is a gradual decrease in purity, there is a transition from the highest part of the *shukla leshya* to the lowest part of the *pita leshya*.
This statement of transformation and transition is not with respect to death, because a *mithyadrishti* deva with a middle *shukla leshya*, when his lifespan is waning, does not transform from the lowest *shukla leshya* etc., but falls into the three inauspicious *leshyas*. (Dhaval Pu. 8 p. 322)
The *leshya parinam* authority has been obtained for the purpose of informing about which *leshya* transforms from which form and by which increase or decrease. The transformation of the *parinam* is transition. In them, the method of transformation of the *krishna leshya* is first mentioned. A being with a *krishna leshya*, having obtained *samklesha*, does not transform into another *leshya*, but obtains an increase in the same place through *shatsthana patit sthana samkran*.
Doubt - What is the form of *shatsthana patit* increase?
-
Solution - Having more *leshyas* than the place from which *samklesha* was obtained, more than countless, more than countable, more than countable times, more than countless times, and more than infinite times, this is called *shatsthana patit* increase.
The aforementioned being with a *krishna leshya*, having obtained purity (decrease in *samklesha*), is without infinite parts, without countless parts, without countable parts, without countable times, without countless times, without infinite times.
