The state (sattva) triangular matrix gives the existent karmic matter in form of nisusus with different life-time arranged in separate columns of present and past instants, fed at every instant at the right by a multiple of instant-effective-bond, and exhausted every instant by similar changed amounts at the bottom horizontal row.33 This gives an equation of motion of the system in a constant or otherwise condition. Tables for methods of summation of such constant-state matrices are available. 34 Then the tables for various measures of knowledge and the corresponding obscuring karmic material are tabulated (vv. 299-464). Tables for complex wayward station also appear (vv. 537-550).
A table gives the measures of various types of fluents. A big table appears for 23 types of vectors (varganās) which have mathematical structures (vv. 596-619).35 Then is the table for the measures of the terms (padārthas) i.e. the system theoretic fluents, inputs, outputs, states, bonds, rise, decay etc. as a total picture (vv. 643-645).
