## First Karma Granth, Chapter 46
**Unstable:** That which sometimes increases, sometimes manifests, and sometimes disappears is called unstable.
**Stable:** That which remains in the soul even after countless births, or which remains only until the origin of knowledge, or which remains throughout life, is called stable knowledge. - These two types are similar in characteristics to the *pratipati* and *apratipati*, but they can be considered different only in terms of name. There is no other difference.
**Description of Avadhijnana in terms of the four categories of substance, etc.:** Avadhijnana knows the substances that are the objects of knowledge. But it clarifies the extent of this knowledge, which is generated by the destruction and pacification of karma, in terms of the limits of substance, space, time, and state.
**In terms of substance:** The Avadhijnani knows and sees from the least, i.e., from the minimum, to the infinite number of substances, and from the best, i.e., from the maximum, to the totality of substances.
**In terms of space:** The Avadhijnani knows and sees from the least, i.e., from a space as small as an infinitesimal part of an inch, to the substances in the space of the entire universe. And even in the non-universe, if one were to imagine the universe divided into countless parts, the Avadhijnani would have the power to know and see them.
Although there is no substance in the non-universe, this imagination is made to show the power of Avadhijnana, that it can encompass a space as large as countless parts of the universe in the non-universe.
