In other words, as his attitude and thoughts were at the moment of death so is his destiny. 4 With this view the author has often repeated this principle. The same principle in common parlance is ‘as you sow, so you will reap'. Special attention should be given to an important part of this principle—a living being about to die can only die in a particular leshya which has influenced him at least for one Antarmuhurt. This means that a living being cannot die in the first moment of his contact with a specific leshya. He abandons his existing body and acquires a new body only 4 when he has been fixed in some particular leshya. This process of y fixation essentially takes one Antarmuhurt to conclude. This means that a living being reincarnates when at least one Antarmuhurt has passed since his entry into a leshya and at least one Antarmuhurt is left in conclusion of its predetermined duration. For example, the Stellar gods have Tejoleshya. A soul that has acquired karmas responsible for rebirth among Stellar gods will acquire particles of Tejoleshya at the last moment of his life and will die when he is fixed in that leshya, to reincarnate as a Stellar god. The aforesaid principle is applicable only to 4 animals and human beings because only in them the leshyas change. In infernal and divine beings leshya does not change throughout life. Therefore a divine being or an infernal being dies only when one Antarmuhurt remains in the end of his leshya, not before that (Vritti, leaf 188). Acharya Malayagiri has stated in his Vritti of Prajnapana Sutra e ultimate-particles of leshya add to or reduce the intensity of 4 passions (Prajnapana, Pad-17, Vritti). This principle is worth exploration from the angle of post-death studies. + अनगार की विकुर्वणा शक्ति POWER OF TRANSMUTATION OF AN ASCETIC १४.
