aggregate of matter particles), and (6) Pradesh (space-point) of the Desh (a section of any of these five).”
At this statement of Naigam naya (co-ordinated viewpoint), Samgraha naya (generalized viewpoint) says— "Your statement that ‘Pradesh (space-point) is of six entities' is wrong."
"Why so ?”
“Because the Pradesh (space-point) of Desh (a section) belongs to the same entity (under consideration)."
“Is there some example for this ?”
“Yes, there is—for instance my servant purchases a donkey (on my behalf). Here the servant belongs to me and the donkey also belongs to me. Therefore do not say that 'Pradesh (space-point) is of six entities', say that 'Pradesh (space-point) is of five entities', and they are (1) Pradesh (space-point) of Dharmastikaya (motion entity), (2) Pradesh (space-point) of Adharmastikaya (rest entity), (3) Pradesh (space-point) of Akashastikaya (space entity), (4) Pradesh (space-point) of Juvastikaya (life entity), and (5) Pradesh (space-point) of Skandha (an aggregate of matter particles)."
To Samgraha naya (generalized viewpoint), stating thus, Vyavahar naya (particularized viewpoint) says—“Your statement that Pradesh (space-point) is of five entities is not correct."
"Why so ??
Your statement that “ 'Pradesh (space-point) is of five entities' would be proper if like a common property belonging to five persons (or partners), such as silver, gold, wealth or food-grains, the particular space-point was common to all the five entities. Therefore do not say that 'Pradesh (space-point) is of five entities' but say that 'Pradesh (space-point) is of five kinds—(1) Pradesh (space-point) of Dharmastikaya (motion entity), (2) Pradesh (space-point) of Adharmastıkaya (rest entity), (3) Pradesh (spacepoint) of Akashastıkaya (space entity), (4) Pradesh (space-point) of Jivastikaya (life entity), and (5) Pradesh (space-point) of Skandha
(an aggregate of matter particles).” ॐ सचित्र अनुयोगद्वार सूत्र-२
