Fill each of the countless fragments of the Badar Kshetrapaly's Balanas into the same pulp as before. In that pulp, those fragments occupy regions of the sky, and the Jina, the omniscient, takes away one region at a time, from birth. The time it takes to take away all the regions, both manifest and unmanifest, is called a **Sookshma Kshetrapalyopam Kala**. Ten Koti Koti **Sookshma Kshetrapalyopam** make up one **Sookshma Kshetrasagropam**. Through these **Sookshma Kshetrapalyopam** and **Sookshma Kshetrasagropam**, the concept of the measure of substances in **Drishtivad** is considered, as well as the measure of the six Kayas: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Plants, and Trisas, in **Drishtivad**.
What is the purpose of these **Kshetrapalyasagropam**? In **Drishtivad**, substances do not exist in these **Kshetrapalyasagropam**.
... In the **Anuyogadwar Sutra 14**, the inquisitive asks about the nature of **Sookshma Kshetrapalyopam Kala**. If all the manifest and unmanifest regions of the sky are taken away by the Balanas, then what is the purpose of the Balanas? Because in that case, the purpose is fulfilled by taking away all the regions within the aforementioned pulp. The solution is that the **Kshetrapalyopam** is used to consider the measure of substances in **Drishtivad**. The measure of some substances is measured by the manifest regions of the sky through the aforementioned Balanas, and the measure of some substances is measured by the unmanifest regions of the sky. Therefore, the instruction of the Balanas is purposeful, not purposeless, because they are useful in the measure of substances described in **Drishtivad**.
