bodiless Samsari jivas are further classified into many kinds : 1. Bhavya and Abhavya :
Bhavya means capable of getting emancipation and abhavya means incapable of getting emancipation. The question arises here why some persons attain emancipation while others do not. What is the reason behind it? Although consciousness exists in each living being, only some are able to develop their internal powers fully. Those who are incapable of this development are known as abhavys. Every stone has the potential to be transformed into a statue but not all pieces of stone will become statutes. Only reaching at the hands of a skilled sculpture it will achieve this end. Likewise, only living beings which have a congenial atmosphere may attain emancipation, the others cannot. 2. Trasa (Mobile) and Sthavar (Immobile) :
Those living beings which are capable of movement are trasa and those living beings which are devoid of this capacity are known as sthavar. The latter are further divided into five kinds viz. (1) Earthbodied (2) Water-bodied (3) Fire-bodied (4) Air-bodied and (5) Plants.
The beings possessed of two, three, four and five sense-organs come under the category of the trasa. Worms, ants, black-bees and human beings are example of living beings which are possessed of two, three, four and five sense-organs respectively.
