Umāsvāti on the Quality of Sukha 63 kṣaṇam prathamam/ ātmaviśuddhimātram itarat/ Srvārthasiddhi, I, 12.

Cf. Akalanka:-siddhatvam api kṣāyikam āgamopadiṣam asti tasyopasam-khyānam iha kartavyam? na kartavyam? ...siddhatvam hi sarveṣām kṣāyikāṇām bhāvānām sādhāraṇam iti/ Tattvārthavārttika, I, p. 106.
26. anyatrakevalajñānadarśanasiddhatvebhyaḥ/ Tattvärthasūtra, X,4. kevalasamyaktvajñāna-darśanasiddhatvebhyo 'nyatrānyasminn ayam vidhir iti/yadi catvāra evāvasiṣyante, anantavīryādīnām nivṛttiḥ präpnoti/naiṣa doṣaḥ, jñāna-darśanāvinābhāvatvād anantavīryādīnām aviseṣaḥ, anantasāmarthyahīnasyānantāvabodharṛttyabhavāj jñānamayatvāc ca sukhasyeti/ Sarvārthasiddhi, X. 4.
These comments may be contrasted with the following:
aupaśamikädibhavyatvābhāvāc canyatrakevalasamyaktvjñanadarśanasiddhatvebhyah/ Tattvärthasūtra, X, 4. ete hy asya kṣāyikā nityās tu muktasyāpi bhavanti/ Bhāṣya, X,4 ...samasta-karmakṣayāt siddhatvam ity ete kṣāyikā bhāvā yasmān nityās tasmān muktasyāpi bhavantīti. Bhāṣya-īkā, X, 4.
While Umāsvāti and Siddhasena are silent on the missing 'bhāvas', namely, Sukha and vīrya in X, 4, Jinabhadragani in his Viseṣāvasyakabhāṣya adds sukha to this list in the following verse, an addition which goes unnoticed in Koyāryavādigaṇi's Vivarana:tassodaiyātīya bhavvattam ca viņivattate samayam/ sammattanāṇadamsaṇasuhasiddhattāim mottūṇa//3685//
tassodaiyātīyā ityādi/tasyedānīm caramasamayakṣaye... muktvā svābhāvikāni samyaktva-jṇāna-daraśanāni yāvat siddhatvāni seṣabhāvānām sāpekṣapariņāmatvād vigama iti sthitam//3685// III, p. 734.
