Gommatasar Karmakanda - 505
Karmam va kinhatie, panuvisacchakkamattvīsachaū | Kamaso teū jugale, sukkāe ohiṇāṇam vā || 549 ||
Meaning - In the three inauspicious leshyas of Krishna, etc., there are 6 bandha sthānas of 23-25-26-28-29 and 30 prakriti rūpa, respectively. In the Teja (yellow) and Padma leshyas, there are 6 sthānas of 25, 26, 28, 29, 30 and 31 prakriti rūpa, respectively, and 4 sthānas of 28, 29, 30 and 31 prakriti rūpa, respectively. In the Shukla leshya, there are 5 sthānas of 28-29-30-31 and prakriti rūpa, like the knowledge of avadhi.
Special Meaning - The dravya leshya of the color of the body, which is the result of the karma called varnanāma, is not taken here. The fluctuating nature of the leshya, which is the yogarūpa of the youth, along with the rise, subsidence, or destruction, or destruction and subsidence of the mohaniya karma, is taken here. There are 6 types of leshya due to the difference in Krishna, etc. There are only three inauspicious leshyas in the hells.
1. Leshya of the hell beings:
Doubt - Karmakanda handwritten commentary by Pandit Todarmalji, page 822 - "Although the hell is a place of inauspicious leshya according to the rules, yet Tejo leshya is found there, which is the first to be obtained when the leshya rises weakly." Tejo leshya is mentioned here, but how is it possible in hell? This is not understood because all three inauspicious leshyas are found in hell, so please provide a solution.
Solution - According to the opinion of Shri Pushpadanta Bhootbali, Tejo leshya does not exist in hell. The characteristic of leshya is as follows - Ātmapravṛtti sansleshakari leshya or limpatiti leshya. Meaning: The leshya that synthesizes or combines the soul and the tendency (karma) is called leshya, or the leshya that covers (the soul from the karmas) is leshya. (Sha. Khan. Pu. 7 letter 7). The peak time of Krishna, Nāl and Kāpot leshya is said to be 33, 17 and 7 oceans, respectively. Because the hell beings who are born in the Tiryancha or humans with Krishna, Nīl and Kāpot leshya, stay for the longest time in the antarmūhūrta kāla, and then are born in the hells with a lifespan of 33, 17 and 7 oceans, respectively, and stay there for their respective lifespans with Krishna, Nīl and Kāpot leshya, and then leave and spend the antarmūhūrta kāla with the same leshyas, and then go to other non-contradictory leshyas, the said three leshyas of the being are found to be 33, 17 and 7 oceans, respectively, including two antarmūhūrta kālas. Therefore, according to this statement, there is no change in the form of leshya in the hells. Therefore, Tejo leshya is not possible there.
According to Gommatasar Jīvakanda - The leshya is that by which the being becomes attached to virtue and vice (verse 488). In hell, there are three inauspicious leshyas of Kāpot, Nīl and Krishna, which are found in the first, etc., earths. This is the statement of the master's authority in relation to the भावलेश्या (bhāvaleshā). (verse 528). The peak time of Krishna leshya is 33 oceans, Nīl leshya is 17 oceans, and Kāpot leshya is 7 oceans. This peak time is in hell because the seventh hell has a peak lifespan of 33 oceans, the fifth hell has a peak lifespan of 17 oceans, and the third hell has a peak lifespan of 7 oceans (verse 551). This also makes it clear that the leshya remains the same in hell until the lifespan is over. One leshya does not change into another leshya. There are two types of transitions in leshyas - (1) Svasthāna Sankraman (2) Parastthāna Sankraman. Parastthāna Sankraman does not occur in the hells. In Svasthāna Sankraman, there is a loss and increase in the six sthānas. It is possible for the hell beings to have a Svasthāna Sankraman of their own leshyas in the form of six sthānas, which happens after the antarmūhūrta (verse 503-505). This change in the six sthānas has also been written in these words somewhere - भावलेश्यास्तु प्रत्येकमन्तर्मुहूर्त परिवर्तिन्यः (bhāvaleshāstu pratyekamantarmūhūrta parivartinyah). In Gom. Ji. verse 495, there is mention of the Krishna color dravya leshya of all the hell beings, but in Sarvarthasiddhi and Tattvarthrajabārtik, all three dravya leshyas of Krishna, Nīl and Kāpot are mentioned for the hell beings.
