DOCTRINE OF THE JAINAS għāya (4 to 6) (comp. Thān. 288 a). As to the process concerning the kevala-s we are advised by Uvay § 141 ff; Thān 442 a To put it briefly, the Kevalın projects his soul atoms still infected with Karman from the vertex and the footpoint from the right and the left side, from the chest and the back in the shape of columns each reaching to the end of the world and then retracts them again. During the time of the 8 samaya it takes to accomplish this process, the Karman particles as must be added logically-disengage from the soul. The samrugghāya of other beings take a longer time, 1. e. ¿ samaya within a muhutta (Pannav. 561 b), and the space filled up by them is, in proportion, infinitesimally small, 1.e. cqual to the body of the resp being, though in the case of the three last of these samugghāya columns we have to add up to į joyana in one direction The ejected (nicchūdha) poggala dissipate in the world, and Uvav. § 133, Viy 740 bi discuss the question as to who is able to perceive them, or, as Pannav. 590 a, 496 a f. does, whether and to what degree the ejecting individual has committed actions against other beings to whom they 'cause an injury ($90) The veuvuiya samugghāya—by differentiating its prefix the appertaining verb is always samohana.—15 equally described (Vıy. 153 b) as the projection of a column which, however, reaches no farther than x joy By means of it particles of substance coarse in proportion (ahā-bāyara)2 arc climinated (parısāder) and others subtle in proportion (ahā-suhuma) are attracted (pariyāer).
