DRAVY A-SAMGRAHA, 23.
particles of time never mix up with one another. In Tattvärthasara, we haie
"एकैकवृत्त्य प्रत्येकमणवस्तस्य निष्क्रियाः
311137-g@aig Tacirra ferat: 11" [188] i.., "The particles of that (Time) exist each in its own capacity, like heaps of jewels in the Pradesas of the Lokâkása (universe), and are without activity."
In Vardhamana Purana, we have "लोकाकाशप्रदेशे ये ह्येकैका प्रणवः स्थिताः। भिन्नभिन्नप्रदेशस्था रत्नानामिव राशयः।"
[Canto XVI., Verse 35. ] i.e., "The particles exist separately in different Pradesas of Lokákasa, like lieaps of jewels in different places."
This characteristic of Time differentiates it from the other five kinds of substances; for, while the former consists of separable particles, the latter are collections of indivisible and inseparable parts.

23. In this manner, this Dravya is said to be of six kinds, according to the subdivisions of Jiva and Ajiva. The five, without Kala, should be understood to be Astikâyas. * Sansleril rendering:
