Also the smallest Pudgala particle remains totally pure and independent inside the structure of an atom or a molecule or any substance,
Atman, as we find, are of two kinds-one Pure and the other with matter or) Pudgala as embodied being, like man, beast, bird, worms etc.
Pudgala formations, as found or seen in this world, are also of two kinds-one forming the organic bodies of all livings (i. e. with soul ) in the form of flesh, blood, bone etc; and the other-the lifeless inorganic material substances such as earth, stone, iron, wood, glass or solids, liquids, gasses, rays and waves etc.
The above distinction or division is made from the “worldly”, “obvious" or "practical” point of view. • The Pudgala gets converted from one substance to another by chemical action and reaction in lifeless inorganic matters and substances in the same way as it gets converted into blood, bone, flesh, fat and milk etc. in contact with living bodies by internal action; and also it exhibits itself in the form of grains, fruits, vegitables etc. through the contact of earth and water etc,
