## Karmagrantha Part Four
In the work of becoming, the sky-like body (ākāśastikāya) is involved in the work of giving space, and time (kāla) is involved in the work of self-work, which is transformed by Yama and other times. Again, there are two aspects: Pariṇāmik and Audayik.
The atom (paramāṇu) only has the Pariṇāmik aspect, but the skandha (skandha) has both Pariṇāmik and Audayik aspects.
Among the skandhas, the skandhas like ghanu (dense) are only Pariṇāmik, but the skandhas like audārik (spiritual) and śarīrarūpa (body-form) have both Pariṇāmik and Audayik aspects. This is because they are constantly transforming in their own form, making them Pariṇāmik, and because they are born from the rise of audārik and śarīrarūpa, making them Audayik.
The two aspects of pudravy (pudravy) should be understood as different from the karma-puṅgala (karma-puṅgala). The karma-puṅgala has five aspects: aupaśamik (temporary), etc., as explained above.

**(11) - The fundamental aspects in the Gunasthānas (from the perspective of one jīva)**
Sammādi chaturyu prayaścvasvāri, bhāva chatvāraḥ pañcopaśamanopaśānte. Chatvāraḥ kṣīma'pūrva prayaḥ, śeṣaguṇasthānaka ekajīve. || 70 ||
**Meaning:** In the Gunasthānas (stages of spiritual progress) starting from Sammādi (right faith), there are four aspects. In the Uparāmak (ninth and tenth) and Upashānta (eleventh) Gunasthānas, there are four or five aspects. The four aspects are kṣīma (diminishing), apūrva (previous), prayaḥ (effort), and the remaining Gunasthānas for one jīva.
