[80] In the Cakkhanḍagama, the number of living beings is described as follows:
[1, 1, 155] According to the Dasanāṇuvāda, how many Cakṣudarsanī beings are there with Mithyādṛṣṭi, in terms of dravya-pramāṇa? They are countless. || 155 ||
[1, 1, 156] In terms of time, countless Cakṣudarsanī beings with Mithyādṛṣṭi are taken away by the Avasarpini and Utsarpini periods. || 156 ||
[1, 1, 157] In terms of the field, the number of Cakṣudarsanī beings with Mithyādṛṣṭi is taken away by the square of the number of parts of an angula, which is a measure of length. || 157 ||
[1, 1, 158] From the Sāsana-Sammā-Iṭṭhi-Pahuḍi to the Kṣīṇa-Kṣaya-Vīta-Raga-Chhadumatta, all Cakṣudarsanī beings are similar in terms of their Ova-prūpaṇā. || 158 ||
[1, 1, 159] From the Mithyādṛṣṭi-Pahuḍi to the Kṣīṇa-Kṣaya-Vīta-Raga-Chhadumatta, all Acākṣudarsanī beings are similar in terms of their Ova-prūpaṇā. || 159 ||
The reason for this is that all beings in the Chhadumatta state have their Acākṣudarsanāvaraṇa destroyed. Therefore, their number is said to be similar to the Ova-prūpaṇā.
[1, 1, 160] The dravya-prūpaṇā of the Avadhi-darsanī beings is similar to that of the Avadhi-jñānī beings. || 160 ||
[1, 1, 161] The dravya-prūpaṇā of the Kevala-darsanī beings is similar to that of the Kevala-jñānī beings. || 161 ||
Since Kevala-darsan is not found without Kevala-jñāna, the number of both is the same.
Now, we will describe the number of beings in terms of the Leśyā-mārgaṇā.
[1, 1, 162] According to the Leśyā-mārgaṇā, the number of beings with Kṛṣṇa-leśyā, Nīla-leśyā, and Kāpota-leśyā, from the Mithyādṛṣṭi-Pahuḍi to the Asanjad-Sammā-Iṭṭhi, is similar to the Ova-prūpaṇā. || 162 ||
