overflow Samudgháta) and first instant of birth (upapáda) is the whole universe,
___Commentary. Place (Kshetra) is the space in which the soul is at present. Extent (Sparsha) is the space in which the soul has been in the past and is in the present.
Generally the extent of soul with three bad paints is the whole universe for their own place (Svasthāna), overflow (Samudghata) and first instant of birth.
In details, the black-paint souls out of the ten places called Padas, for their sphere of birth (Svasthāna Swasthana), anguish (Vedná), passion, (Kasháya), death-bed overflow (márnánika samudgháta) and instant of birth in transmigration (Upapáda) have the whole Universe as their extent.
___ Their extent (Sparsha) of sphere of motion (Vihāravat-svasthána) is basic area (Jagatpratar) multiplied by numerable linear finger (Súchi-angula). In their transformation overflow (vaikriyika Samudgháta) it is a numerable part of the universe.
In the black-thought-paint there is no electric (Taijasa) Áhárka and omniscient (Kevala) overflow.
The extent of blue and grey should be known like that of black. See sanskrit commentary for further details. तेउस्स य सहाणे लोगस्त असंखभागमेत्तं तु ।
अड चोदस भागा वा देसूणा होति णियमेण ॥ ५४६॥ तेजसश्च स्वस्थाने लोकस्यासंख्यभागमात्रं तु। अष्ट चतुर्दश भागा वा देशोना भवन्ति नियमेन ॥ ५४६ ॥
546. (The extent) of yellow as regards its sphere of birth (Svasthāna svasthāna), and (its sphere of motion Viháravat-svasthána) are necessarily an innumerable part of the universe, and a little less than 8 parts out of 14 (of the mobile channel, Trasa Nadi respectively). .
एवं तु समुग्धादे णव चोदसभागयं च किंचूण । उववादे पढमपदं दिवड्दचोदस य किंचूणं ॥ ५४७॥ एवं तु समुद्घाते नव चतुर्दशभागश्च किश्चिदूनः। उपपादे प्रथमपदं द्वयर्धचतुर्दश च किश्चिदूनम् ॥ ५४७ ॥
