885. Common ratio (Dhruvahira multiplied by itself as many times as the number of divisions of partial visual knowledge as regards its subject matter in the geometric series (i. e., the number of terms minus 2, is) multiplier of the karmic molecule. (This) multiplied by karmic molecule should be known to be the unit of bondage (Samaya-Prabaddha. with regard to (the subject matter of) visual knowledge.
मणदव्ववग्गणाण वियप्पाणंतिमसमं खु धुवहारो। अवरुवस्सविसंसा रूवहिया तध्वियप्पा हु॥ ३८६ ॥ मनोद्रव्यवर्गणानां विकल्पानन्तिमसमं खलु ध्रुवहारः । अवरोत्कृष्टविशेषा रूपाधिकाः तद्विकल्पा हि ॥ ३८६ ॥
386. An infinite part of (the number of) divisions of molecules of mind matter (mano-varganā) is the common ratio (Druvahára.) The difference between the maximum and minimum (of mind matter) plus one (are) the divisions of these molecules. (It refers to common ratio of mind molecules)..
अवरं होदि अणंतं अशंतभागेण अहियमुकस्सं । इदि मणभेदाणंतिमभागो दवम्मि धुवहारो ॥ ३८७॥ श्रवरं भवति अनन्तमनन्तभागेन अधिकमुत्कृष्टम् । इति मनोभेदानन्तिमभागो द्रव्ये ध्रुवहारः॥ ३८७॥
387. The minimum of mind-molecules is infinite (i. e. minimum mind molecule is of infinite atoms). And an infinite part of it added to it (is) its maximum. Thus an infinite part of the divisions of the mind (molecules is) the common ratio (Dhruyahàra) for the subject matter (of visual knowledge).
धुवहारस्स पमाणं सिद्धाणंतिमपमाणमेत्तंपि। समयपबद्धणिमित्तं कम्मणवग्गणगुणादो दु ॥ ३८८ ॥
