________________ XXV 1 In these cases the being isoror x times or times ‘inferior' resp. 'superior'. 4 (854b) a. There are fifteen kinds of activity (joga): activity is effected by the inner sense or by speech, both of which may be true, false, both true and false or neither true nor false (sacca-mana-joga etc.), or it is effected by one of the seven bodies (oraliya-sarira-kaya-joga, orāliya-mīsā-s.-k.-j. etc., see XIII 71o). b. The relative quantity of the comparatively smallest and greatest (jahann'ukkosaga) forms of these fifteen activities. * * The same text in Pannav. 317b with paoga instead of joga. 2. DAVVA. 1 (855b) Substances (da v v a) are living (jiva-d.) or lifeless (ajiva-d.). Lifeless substances have a form (are rūvi) or are formless (arūvi), ref. to Pannav. 5:179a. Both living and lifeless substances are infinite in number. 2 (856a) Lifeless substances exist on behalf of the living ones (jiva-davvāņam ajīva-davvā paribhogattae havvam āgacchanti, cf. XVIII 41), not the other way round. Souls (jiva-davvā) indeed take possession (pariyadiyanti) of lifeless substances; the latter constitute (nivvattiyanti) the five bodies, the five senses, the three activities and the breathing (aṇāpāṇatta) of HAMG. 3 (856b) a. Within 'the world the measure of which cannot be expressed in numbers' (asamkhejja loga, cf. V 94) these innumerable substances necessarily stay in space (davvāim āgāse bhaiyavvaim or bhaviyavvāim). b. Within one unit of space particles of matter (poggala) accumulate resp. disperse (cijjanti resp. chijjanti, or [with aggregates, Abhay.] uvacijjanti resp. avacijjanti) in the six directions if there is no hindrance [that means: if the unit of space is not situated on the limits of the non-world]; otherwise (vāghāyam paducca) they can do so only in three, four or five directions. bhaviyavvam Probably davvaim ... bha[v]iyavvaim means davvehim although bhaiyavva might be bhaktavya 'to be distributed'; according to Abhay. bh. bhaktavya: bhartavya dhāraṇiya!
