**Meaning:** Liberation, half and field, thus there are three types of Palypalyopam. In them, in sequence, one moment, in a hundred years and in one moment, a hair-tip is used as a comparison. By which, in sequence, islands, oceans, lifespan and Prasadhi Jivas are calculated.
**Special Meaning:** In this verse, the types of Palypalyopam, their nature and their use are briefly instructed. In the world, things that can be easily counted and as far as the field of mathematics is concerned, it is easy to calculate, but beyond that, the tendency is towards comparison. For example, sesame seeds, mustard seeds, wheat etc. grains cannot be counted, so they are measured by weight or measurement etc. Similarly, the period of time that can be counted in terms of years is calculated and for that, in the scriptures, Purvaang, Purva etc. are considered as names, but even after that, the period of time is so long that it cannot be calculated in years. Therefore, the help of comparison is taken. There are two types of comparison: Palypalyopam and Samaropama.
The long period of time is compared to a moment, the circular space filled with one Anapa etc. is called a Palp.
