8 (882b) An atom and an aggregate of an odd number of atoms have no halves (anaddha), whereas an aggregate of an even number of atoms has halves (s'addha). An aggregate of x, i or o atoms may have halves or not and the same is true with a number of atoms (paramânupoggalā) and aggregates.
Cf. V 78. 9 (883b) a. An atom (paramânupoggala) or any given aggregate (jāva ananta-paesie [khandhe]), or a number of these, may be in motion (seya) or in rest (nireya). b. The minimum and maximum durations of an atom or an aggregate in motion are I samaya and ļāvaliyā resp. For the atom or aggregate in rest these durations are i samaya and a space of time resp. There always (savv'addham) are (scil. were, are and will be, Abhay.) atoms and aggregates in motion and in rest. c. Minimum and maximum durations of the intermediate space of time (antara) during which the atom or aggregate is in motion between two spaces of time during which it is in rest. If the atom or aggregate does not leave its state of being an atom resp. an aggregate of a given number of units (thus Abhay, on sa-tthān'antaram paducca), these durations of course correspond with what has been stated in b above. If, however, they leave that state (paratthān'antaram paducca, that means if the atom enters an aggregate or if a given aggregate enters another aggregate, Abhay.), the maximum interim duration is a < space of time in the case of the atom and a co space of time in the case of the aggregate. Of course there is no intermediate space of time (n'atthi antaram) during which all atoms or aggregates are in rest. d. The relative (884a) frequency of atoms and of all kinds of
