________________ Verse 64 कर्म-योग्य पुद्गल समस्त लोक में व्याप्त हैं - The universe (loka) is densely filled with matter-bodies (pudgalakaya) - ओगाढगाढणिचिदो पोग्गलकायेहिं सव्वदो लोगो / सुहमेहिं बादरेहिं य णंताणतेहिं विविधेहिं // 64 // अवगाढगाढनिचितः पुद्गलकायैः सर्वतो लोकः / सूक्ष्मैर्बादरैश्चानन्तानन्तैर्विविधैः // 64 // अन्वयार्थ - [लोकः] लोक [ सर्वतः] सर्वतः (अर्थात् सर्वलोक) [विविधैः ] विविध प्रकार के [अनन्तानन्तैः ] अनंतानंत [ सूक्ष्मैः बादरैः च] सूक्ष्म तथा बादर [ पुद्गलकायैः ] पुद्गलकायों (पुद्गलस्कन्धों) द्वारा [अवगाढगाढनिचितः] अवगाहित होकर गाढ़ भरा हुआ है। The whole of the universe (loka) is densely filled with different kinds of fine (suksma) and gross (badara) matter-bodies (pudgalakaya) that are infinite-timesinfinite (anantananta) in number. EXPLANATORY NOTE Here is the Doctrine for answering the question raised in verse 63: The whole of the universe (loka) is filled densely without any interspace, like a sachet with collyrium-powder, with infinite-times-i matter-bodies (pudgalakaya), fine and gross. The matter-bodies (pudgalakaya) include matter-molecules (pudgala-skandha) that are fit to turn into the karmas - karmana-vargana. This means that such matter-molecules (pudgala-skandha) do exist in the space that is occupied by the soul (atma). These are not brought in this space by any external agency. In essence, the matter-molecules (pudgala-skandha) that are fit to turn into the karmas coexist with the soul (atma), like the milk and the water. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 131
