________________ Pancastikaya-samgraha (prthivikayika), water-bodied (jalakayika), and plantbodied (vanaspatikayika) - are stationary, or 'sthavara'; the remaining two kinds - air-bodied (vayukayika) and fire-bodied (agnikayika) - are moving, or 'trasa'. All these are without-mind (asaini) and possess just one sense (indriya). EXPLANATORY NOTE It is worth noting that all these five kinds of soul-bodies are different divisions of the 'sthavara' name-karma. Still, empirically, the soulbodies with tendency to remain stationary are called 'sthavara', and those with tendency to move are called 'trasa'. From this viewpoint, air-bodied (vayukayika) and fire-bodied (agnikayika) soul-bodies have been called 'trasa'in the verse. 1 Acarya Umasvami's Tattvarthasutra: पृथिव्यप्तेजोवायुवनस्पतयः स्थावराः // 2-13 // पृथिवीकायिक, जलकायिक, अग्निकायिक, वायुकायिक और वनस्पतिकायिक - ये पाँच प्रकार के स्थावर जीव हैं। (इन जीवों के मात्र एक स्पर्शन इन्द्रिय Earth-bodied - prthivikayika, water-bodied - jalakayika, firebodied - agnikayika, air-bodied - vayukayika, and plant-bodied - vanaspatikayika, are sthavara beings. 1- From the two-sensed beings up to the Omniscient-without-activity (ayogakevali) are designated 'trasa' in the Scripture. The distinction is not based on movability or immovability, but on fruition of 'trasa'and 'sthavara'name-karma (namakarma). (see 'Sarvarthasiddhi', p. 124.) . . . . . . . . . 216
