संति जदो तेणेदे अत्थि त्ति भणंति जिणवरा जम्हा। काया इव बहुदेसा तम्हा काया य अस्थिकाया य॥२४॥
santi jado ten' ede atthi tti bhananti jina-varā jamhā kāyā iva bahu-desā tamhā kāyā ya atthi-kāyā ya.
Because they exist the excellent Jinas call them "existing”. Because, like conglomerates, they have numerous space points, therefore they are "conglomerates." and "existing conglomerates".
होंति असंखा जीवे धम्माधम्मे अणंत आयासे। मुत्ते तिविह पदेसा कालस्सेगो ण तेण सो काओ॥२५॥ honti asamkhā jīve dhammādhamme aṇanta āyāse mutte ti-viha padesā; kālass' ego na tena so kāo.
There are innumerable space points in the sentient (substance and) in the media of
motion and rest, (and) infinite ones in space; in matter they are threefold (i.e. numerable, innumerable and infinite). Time has only one; therefore it is not a conglomerate.
एयपदेसो वि अणू णाणाखंधप्पदेसदो होदि। बहुदेसो उवयारा तेण य काओ भणंति सव्वण्हु॥२६॥ eya-padeso vi anū nāņā-khandha-ppadesado hodi bahu-deso uvayārā tena ya kāo bhananti savvaņhu.
Although having only one space point, an atom results into having many space points because of the space points contained in various aggregates. This is why the Allknowing call it "conglomerate" figuratively
