स्त्रीपुरुषोदयचटिते पूर्व षण्ढं क्षपयति स्त्री अस्ति । षण्ढस्योदये पूर्व स्त्रीक्षपितं षण्ढ मस्तीति ॥ ३८८ ॥
388. (This is so, because the soul) ascending (to destructive ladder), with operation of female or male (inclination), first destroys the common (inclination), (then there) is the existence of female (sex in the two places); (and the soul rising with) operation of common (sex inclination), first destroys the female (sex), (therefore there) is existence of common (sex in the aforesaid two places).
Commentary. Thus there are thirty six places and thirty eight divisions in advanced thought-activity stage of destructive ladder and there are 24 places and 24 divisions in this stage of subsidential ladder. 62 divisions in all are thus possible in the 9th stage. The common or feminine inclination is destroyed in the 4th or 5th place of each row just as the soul rises in the destructive ladder with male or female inclination or with common inclination. It is with reference to the second and fourth row, where Tirthankara sub-class does not . exist that we have the two extra divisions.
अणियट्टिचरिमठाणा चत्तारिवि एकहीण सुहमस्स। ते इगिदोषिणविहीणं खीणस्सवि होति ठाणाणि ॥ ३८६ ॥ अनिवृत्तिचरमस्थानानि चत्वार्यपि एकहीनं सूक्ष्मस्य । तानि एकद्विविहीनं क्षीणस्यापि भवन्ति स्थानानि ॥ ३८६ ॥
389. The last place (of each of the four rows) of the advanced thought-activity (stage should be taken) in (the 10th stage of)slightest(delusion),after deducting one (deceit from each). (Thus we have 4 places of 102, 101, 98, and 97 with 4 divisions there). The places of (the 12th stage) of destructive (delusion) are the same after deducting .one (greed up to last but one instant; and four places again after deducting therefrom) two (i. e., sleep and drowsiness). (Thus we have eight places in the 12th stage having 101, 100, 97, 96, 99, 98, 95 and 94. The divisions are eight).
