verse, what will be the result in the terms of the spatial units of the universe, if 2 is raised to the power of the number of Halvings of the number of gross fire bodied beings.
The answer is clear. It is the number of the spatial units of the universe raised to the power of the quotient obtained by dividing the Halvings of the number of gross-bodied souls, by the Halvings of the number of spatial units of the universe.
Thus, the number of gross-fire-bodied souls is equal to innumerable into innumerable spatial units of the universe..
Similarly the number of other kinds can be obtained..

216. By the operation of the matter-maturing body (sub-class of the body making Karma) in the soul with mind, speech or body, that very capacity which is the cause of in-coming of the Karmas is vibration: (Yoga or vibratory activity of the soul).
Commentary.
Vibration (Jaga) is two kinds :
(1) Subjective vibratiqn (Bháya Yoga) i. e., by capacity itself by which the matter of mind, speech or body is set in vibration..
(2) Objective vibration (Dravya yoga) i. e., the actual vibrating of the spatial units, (Pradesha) of soul..
Jain Education International
Karma here means molecules of Karmic matter, also molecules of no-Karmic matter i. e. the molecules (varganá) of mind, speech, and āháraka and Electric (Tai jasa) matter..

तणामं होदि तदा तेहि दु जोगा हु तजोगा ॥ २१७ ॥ मनोवचनयोः प्रवृत्तयः सत्यासत्यो भयानुभयार्थेषु । तन्नाम भवति तदा तैस्तु योगात् हि तद्योगाः ॥ २१७ ॥
