The five Astikayas, beginning with the Ākāśa Astikaya, are distinguished by their unique characteristics. What do these characteristics do? They create oneness in practice and difference in certainty. For example, just as this living being, along with the five substances like Pudgala, creates oneness in practice by being contained within the same field as other living beings, it creates difference in certainty by its knowledge quality, which is characterized by the ultimate consciousness and its playful nature, illuminating an infinite number of qualities simultaneously in all things. Similarly, the substances of Dharma, Adharma, Loka, and Ākāśa, being contained within the same field, are indistinguishable and have the same magnitude, so they create oneness in practice through their shared characteristics. However, they create difference in certainty by their unique characteristics of motion, rest, and containment. This is the meaning of the sūtra. || 96 ||
Thus, the Gāthā Sūtra has been explained in the third place, describing the oneness and difference of Dharma, Adharma, and Ākāśa.
In this way, the seventh Uttara Adhikāra, which explains the Ākāśa Astikaya in three places through seven Gāthās, is complete within the first Mahādhikāra, which discusses the five Astikayas and the six substances.
