[706] In the Chakkhandagama, the section on the extent of knowledge is described as follows:
[5, 5, 71] The extent of knowledge of these gods is specified as downwards. These gods know only up to the peak of their respective planes by means of their knowledge. The measure of time for their knowledge is only countless years, countless parts of a palya, and countless parts of a palya, in the order of Brahma-Brahmottara kalpas. Above the Brahma-Brahmottara kalpa, up to the Praveyak, the measure of time for the object of this knowledge is only a little less than a palya.
[71] The gods who reside in the Ananta-Pranada kalpa and the Aran-Achyuta kalpa see up to the fifth earth, and the gods of the Praveyak see up to the sixth earth.
[72] The gods who reside in the Anuttara see all the Lokanalis. These gods know the final form-based pudgala-dravya obtained by giving a part of the infinite part of the manodravya-varna in their karma as many times as there are regions in their field.
[72] Thus, after describing the dravya-kshetra, etc., which are the objects of the Desavadhi, the next gatha-sutra is obtained for the description of the dravya-kshetra, etc., which are the objects of the Parmavadhi.
[73] The extent of the Parmavadhi-jnana is countless ghana-lokas in measure, and its time-form is also countless lokas in measure. It knows the form-based dravya obtained by the agnikayika jivas, which is limited by the kshetra-upam.
[73] This Parmavadhi-jnana is only for the restrained, not for the unrestrained, and the jiva who possesses it never attains mithyatva and unrestrainedness. From this, it should also be understood that the Parmavadhi-jnani jiva does not become a god after death, because there is a lack of restraint there. Its excellent field is countless ghana-lokas in measure, and its excellent time is also countless lokas in measure. By field, it is meant the places where the agnikayika jivas reside. The agnikayika jivas who are compared to this field should be known as kshetra-upam. The infinite number of atoms that are obtained by limiting them, which are established in the form of a needle, should be known as the measure of the excellent dravya that is its object.
