Gommatasar Karmakanda-775
In the state of bondage due to knowledge-obscuring karma, after the time of the disease, in the first consecration of the first quality-loss, the bath is given with much water. From that, the substance is given less and less in the form of one-fourth, until the first consecration of the second quality-loss. In the second consecration of the second quality-loss, the substance is known to be one-fourth less than the first consecration of the second quality-loss. So, in the first quality-loss, the measure of the decrease in the consecration-consecration is one-fourth. From that, the measure of the decrease in the second quality-loss should be known to be half-half. In the same way, above also, in each quality-loss, the measure of the decrease is half-half.
The substance, the measure of the quality-loss, the half of that, the dal-shalaka, the consecration-cutting, the double quality-loss, and the mutually multiplied quantity, these six quantities should be known.
Special meaning: The measure of the pudgala-paramanu transformed by karma is the substance-quantity. The measure of the times of the karma-state as mentioned before is the state-quantity. As long as the substance is not given less and less by two, there is one quality-loss. The measure of the times in such quality-losses is the quality-loss-measure-quantity. The measure of all the quality-losses found in all the states is the various-quality-loss-quantity. The measure of the quality-loss-measure-quantity, when doubled, is the double quality-loss-quantity. And, the measure of the various-quality-loss-quantity, when multiplied by two, is the mutually multiplied quantity.
