Commentary. When vibratory omniscient is silent, only three vitalities are working, but when respiration is ceased, only 2 vitalities remain.
छहोत्ति पढमसरणा सकज्ज सेसा य कारणावेक्खा। पुवो पढमणियहो सुहमोत्ति कमेण सेसाओ ॥७०२॥ षष्ठ इति प्रथमसंज्ञा सकार्या शेषाश्च कारणापेक्षाः । अपूर्वः प्रथमानिवृत्तिः सूक्ष्म इति क्रमेण शेषाः ॥ ७०२ ॥

The first (of these 3, i.e., fear) drops off at the end of (the 8th stage), new-thought activity, (Apúrva-karana). The remaining (coition and attachment drop off, respectively, at the end of the 9th, i e.) advanced-thought-activity (and the 10th, i.e.) slightest (passion, Súkshma Sámparáya).
