rashi) are infinite in number, and even the life-forms that have entered worldly interaction (vyavahar) are infinite. However, if you wanted to count the number of human beings that are in worldly interaction, then it is possible. And those who have been liberated from the worldly interaction (vyavahar); who have gone on to the location of ultimate liberation (Siddha gati), are also infinite in number!
The living entities (jiva) that have no identity (avyavahar rashi) come over here into worldly interaction (vyavahar). Just believe that, fifty-thousand living entities (jiva) go to final liberation (moksha), and fifty-thousand living entities come from the unidentified state (avyavahar rashi) and make entry into worldly interaction (vyavahar), which is why the worldly interaction stays the same all the time.
What is considered worldly interaction (vyavahar)? Those life-forms (jivas), that have been gradually evolving in the path of evolution (samsaran marg), who have been given a name; that is, that they can be identified by a name; means that they have now entered into the interaction of the world (vyavahar). So you could say, “Man, this is an onion, this is a rose, this is a grain of rice, this is algae.' So all the way to final liberation (moksha), the circumstances and state (avastha) are constantly changing, and the life-form is gradually developing further and further, from a single-sensed organism (ekendriya), all the way until it develops five senses (panchindriya).
After attaining five senses (panchindriya), the life-form becomes human in foreign countries, where it develops further and further along in the human form, before it takes birth in Hindustan (India). Those living beings (jiva) that come to enter Hindustan, have the highest spiritual development, which gives them a greater right to final liberation (moksha). Those in foreign lands are not yet entitled to moksha, as they are still in the stages of development! He that has developed fully, then goes to final liberation from here!
