It is possible. In a liberated soul, the contemplation done with certainty decreases. For example: the one who has the 'netana' quality is called 'Jiva' etc.
(2) The places (subjects) of the retention of the qualities, yoga, use etc. of 'margana' are called 'margana-sthana'. The various types of 'paryaya' of the Jiva, such as the sense organs, are such places, therefore they are called 'margana-sthana'.
(3) The different forms of the Jiva, which are caused by the purity and impurity of the qualities like knowledge, conduct, character etc., are called 'guna-sthana'. 1 "Tikkale cha pana, indiyabal mauaanpana yo. Bavahara si jivo, nicchamanayado duvedana jassa ||3||"
Dravya Sangraha. 2 This is also stated in Gommatasar-Jivakanda:
"Jah va jasu va jiva, magijjate jaha taha dicha. Tao chodham jane, suyanane magani hoti. ||140||"
The 'paryaya' through which or in which the contemplation of the Jivas is done according to the omniscient, the vision, are 'margana-sthana'.
_ In Gommatasar, 'vistara', 'adesh' and 'vishesh' are considered to be synonyms of 'margana-sthana'. Jina, Ga. 3. 3 Its explanation is given in Gommatasar-Jivakanda as follows:
"Jehi du lakkhijjate, udayadisus sambhavehim bhavahhim.
Jaova te gunas pranaa, nihittha sanad rasihi. |||" Darshanamohaniya tadha charitramohaniya ke audayak adi jin bhavo (paryayo) bya dvara jiva ka bodh hota hai, ve bhav 'guna-sthana' hai.
In Gommatasar, 'sankshep', 'odh', 'samanya' and 'jivasamaas' are synonyms of 'guna-sthana'. -Ji. Ga. 3 and 10.
