table; (2) Local (Vaishayika), as John is in London, or the sun is in the sky; (3) Pervasive (Abhivyápaka) as there is oil in linseed, juice in lemon. ____Media of motion and rest are all-pervasive in the space of universe (Lokákásha).
लोगस्स असंखेज्जदिभागप्पहुर्दि तु सव्वलोगोत्ति । अप्पपदेसविसप्पणसंहारे वावडो जीवो ॥ ५८४ ॥ लोकस्यासंख्येयभागप्रभृतिस्तु सर्वलोक इति । आत्मप्रदेशविसर्पणसंहारे व्यापृतो जीवः ॥ ५८४ ॥ .
584. By the expansion and contraction of its units (Pradesha) one soul expands from an innumerable part of the universe etc., up to the whole universe.
Commentary, The minimum body is that of a completely undevelopable fine common soul. The maximum is of the great fish in the (Svayambhúramana, the last ocean. One soul in omniscient overflow can expand up to the extent of the whole universe.
पोग्गलदव्वाणं पुण एयपदेसादि होत भजणिज्जा। एकेको दु पदेसो कालाणूणं धुवो होदि ॥ ५८५ ॥ पुद्गलद्रव्याणां पुनरकप्रदेशादयो भवन्ति भजनीयाः। एकैकस्तु प्रदेशः कालाधूनां ध्रुवो भवति ॥ ५८५ ॥
585. (The extents) of the matter substances, (atom, molecules etc., etc.) are one spatial unit, etc., as necessary, (up to the whole universe). (And the extent) of (each) of the atoms of time (Kálánu) is permanent i.e., one spatial unit (Pradesha).
Commentary. " As necessary' means that some combinations of atoms of matter in their molecular form may occupy lesser spatial units than the number of their constituent atoms.
संखेज्जासंखेज्जाणंता वा होति पोग्गलपदेसा। लोगागासेव ठिदी एगपदेसो अणुस्स हवे ॥५८६ ॥ संख्येयासंख्येयानन्ता वा भवन्ति पुद्गलप्रदेशाः।। लोकाकाशे एव स्थितिरेकप्रदेश प्रपोर्भवेत् ॥ ५८६ ॥
