It may also be noted that the organism structure has been shown to consist of several substructures, which comprise of the cosmological structure, linguistic structure, psychological structure and various others, ultimately having a constructive role to develop an organism in its capacity of the knowledge-set. Actually, the aim is to attain ultimately the supreme existential setof indivisibilble-correspondingsections of omniscience (kevala jñāna), which is the supreme construction set in the divergent sequences of various types ofexistential and constructive sets passing in the description of various station (sthānas) all relevant to the development of an organismic knowledge. 21
C. Systems Concepts
The technological method of information processing and decision-making has made it possible to deal with various types of systems, their behaviour, transformations, controls, etc. Similarly, in the GJK, GKK and LDS, KNS, the karma system theory has been dealt with types of way-ward-stations (mārgaņā-sthānas) and controlstations (guņa-sthānas).22 As we have already seen that cause-effect relations have been maintained through āsrava, saṁvara, nirjarā, which form inputs and out puts of the karma system. A stage reaches in the bios or organism, when it becomes a goal-seeking system, or a control system when it plays the role of decision making for attaining more and more of knowledge through various controls, as the above two types of stations:
The above theory of karma system was thus applied by the Jaina school to their own situations where scientific and management achievement were concerned.
D. Symmetry Concepts
In the theory of elementary particles, symmetry concepts have played a fundamental role, through group theory, Yang and Wigner spelt out that group theory lies in the basic postulate of quantum theory that the quantum states of a physical system form a linear manifold. 23 We have seen in the Digambara Jaina School, how various
