________________ Jain Phraseology into English. 251 Nastisvabhava-arca Frare-lit. the nature of non-existence; the fact that it is not such and such. As a secondary samanya svabhava it means that both existence and non-existence must be predicated of a thing (existence of some predicates and non-existence of other predicates i. e. the existence of its own dravya, Kshetra, Kala & bhava, and non existence of the dravya, kshetra, kala and Bhava of other dravyas ) Nastitam AFFA-saine as nastitva arrenca ( Presence of its own paryayas (astitalaar) and absence of another thing's paryayas ( Nastita--arecar ) simultaneously.) Nayavala-agar-consideration of aspects. Niyama- ta-law, a proposition which expresses the constant or regular order of phenomena, or the constant mode of action of things or beings under certain definite circumstances. Nirjura-fast-working out of the karmas. Paryaya—mira-Modification; a particular modification of the guna ( quality ); paryayas succeed each other, they are changing. The sanskrit word paryaya has not all the connotations which the English word 'modification 'has; therefore it is preferable to use the sanskrit word. Pradesha--an indivisible inseparable part of a substance. The pradeshas can only be thought of in imagination. In every pradesha there are infinite capacities of performing ways. Any particular dravya has many pradeshas; but the atom has no pradeshas. Pudgalastikaya-Eeta 19-that drarya ( substance ) the nature of which is such that its qualities (colour etc. ) increase and decrease. ( Here the real dravya is the atom--the ultimate indivisible atom ( not in the theosophical sense.) Parmanuqtary-an atom of matter; the substantial (upadan) cause of all pudgala ( matter ). It is not a mixture
