(Q.) Does Krishna (black) leshya (soul-complexion) get converted again and again into the form... and so on up to... touch of Neel (blue) leshya on coming in its contact ?
(Ans.] This is related to the process of rebirth and the answer iswhen a being with attitude conforming to Krishna leshya dies after acquiring substances conforming to Neel leshya he takes rebirth as a being conforming to Neel leshya in whichever genus he is born. This follows the stated rule—the leshya of the matter (karmic particles) acquired at the time of death determines the leshya of the reincarnation, The cause itself becomes the consequential effect. Clay as the consequence of shaping turns into pot of clay. In the same way Krishna leshya as a consequence of contact turns into Neel leshya with passage of time. In this context the difference between Krishna and Neel leshyas is only for name sake and not fundamental. (this transformation has been elaborated by giving examples-)
Contact with butter-milk causes change in sweetness and other attributes of milk acquiring the colour, smell, taste and touch of buttermilk. Contact with red or yellow dyes causes change in attribu white cloth acquiring the colour, smell, taste and touch of the dye. In the same way contact with Neel leshya causes change in attributes of Krishna leshya acquiring the colour, smell, taste and touch of Neel leshya. Contact with Neel, Padma and Shukla leshyas causes change in attributes of Krishna, Tejo and Padma leshyas respectively acquiring the
r, smell, taste and touch of the former. All these details should be stated. • END OF THE TENTH LESSON OF THE FOURTH CHAPTER •
