________________ Verse 92-93 (adharma). As there is no medium-of-motion (dharma dravya), which aids movement, in the non-universe (aloka), the liberated souls do not go beyond the universe (loka). Otherwise there would be no distinction between the universe (loka) and the non-universe (aloka). If we attribute the functions of motion (gati) and rest (sthiti) also to the space (akasa), then there would be no distinction between the universe (loka) and the non-universe (aloka). सिद्धों का लोक के अग्रभाग में तिष्ठना कहा है - The liberated-souls (Siddha) stay forever at the summit of the universe (loka) - जम्हा उवरिट्ठाणं सिद्धाणं जिणवरेहिं पण्णत्तं / तम्हा गमणट्ठाणं आयासे जाण णत्थि त्ति // 13 // यस्मादुपरिस्थानं सिद्धानां जिनवरैः प्रज्ञप्तं / तस्माद्गमनस्थानमाकाशे जानीहि नास्तीति // 13 // अन्वयार्थ - [ यस्मात् ] चूंकि [ जिनवरैः ] जिनवरों ने (वीतराग सर्वज्ञ देवों ने) [सिद्धानाम्] सिद्धों की [उपरिस्थानं] लोक के ऊपर स्थिति [ प्रज्ञप्तम् ] कही है [ तस्मात् ] इसलिये [गमनस्थानम् आकाशे न अस्ति] गति-स्थिति (हेतुपना, निमित्तगुण) आकाश द्रव्य में नहीं होता, [इति जानीहि ] ऐसा जानो। As (Lords) Jina have proclaimed, the liberated-souls (Siddha) stay forever at the top of the universe (loka), therefore, know that the space (akasa) does not assist objects in their motion (gati) and rest (sthiti). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 181
