mediums being indivisible wholes their reciprocating wave cycles (including recoiling) is instantaneous in their entire space points. This is omniscient's power pervasion.

Specialists on bat's sonor write: "All the things that we see with our eyes-obstacles, food, distance, relative speed of things, shape, size and innumerable other properties of our visible world-are represented in the bat's audible world."
Hence all types of energy waves whether sound, light or radio are full or complete news carriers. This applies to the omniscient's energy waves too and the function is super fine because of their unlimited pervasion and infinitesimal wave lengths. Unlike the material energy waves these carry news of the minutest particle and the immaterial substances as well.
The process of reception or tuning of these super energy waves, decoding of their messages and providing the soul with infinite knowledge and infinite perception falls within the province of Jiva-Svabhāva-Guṇā Vyañjana Paryāya.
In the mundane souls due to the activity of the obscuring Karman its function is deranged (Vibhāva). It depends on the imperfect sense organs and material energy waves of gross wave lengths and of limited range. These conditions are absent in the omniscient and it functions perfectly.
Mundane soul's attainment of purity by the elimination of obscuring Karman is followed by the perfect working of the Jiva Vyañjana Paryāya resulting in omniscience.
Happiness is the natural functioning of soul. This subject of Artha and Vyañjanā Paryayas need immediate and thorough research by eminent scholars in Jainism and modern science.
