THE SACRED BOOKS OF THE JAINAS.
Let the total number of souls for all three vibrations be equal to 21840. According to the above Gatha, t, the number of souls with true-mind-vibrations is 21840-1365-16.
And the numbers of souls corresponding to the above 9 classes of vibrations are, respectively, 16, 32, 64, 128, 480, 960, 1920, 3840, 14400 aggregating 21840.
From the above we can deduce the following rule. The number of souls for any 2 of the above 9 classes of vibration is in direct proportion to the number of instants in their durations.
कम्मारालियमिस्सयोरालद्धासु संचिदअणंता। कम्मोरालियमिस्सयओरालियजोगिणो जीवा ॥ २६४ ॥ कार्मणौदारिक मिश्रकौरालाद्धासुसंचितानन्ताः। कार्मणौरालिकमिश्रकौरालिकयोगिनो जीवाः ॥ २६४ ॥
264. The total number of souls with the vibration of Karmic, physical mixed (with Karmic), and physical bodies, during the time of Karmic, physical mixed (with Karmic), and physical vibration is infinite.
समयत्तयसंखावलिसंखगुणावलिसमासहिदरासी। सगगुणगुणिदे थोवो असंखसंखाहदो कमसो ॥ २६५ ॥ समयत्रयसंख्यावलिसंख्यगुणावलिसमासहितराशिं । स्वकगुणगुणिते स्तोकः असंख्यसंख्याहतः क्रमशः ॥ २६५॥
265. Three instants, numerable winks (Avali),numerable times (i. e. numerable) winks, (are respectively the time for the above 3 kinds of vibrations). The number (of souls with body.vibration alone) divided by the total (of these three) multiplied by the instants in the time of each (give the number of souls in each). (And) respectively (they are) the least, innumerable times (this least), and numerable times this last.
Commentary. Let Sankhyáta be equal to 2. Let Asankhyáta be equal to x. Ávalí consists of Asankhyata innumerable instants. The time of Karmie vibration is 3 instants.
