TATTVÄRTHA SUTRA
d) Hiyamän: This denotes a decreasing level of clairvoyance. That happens on account of decreasing level of purity
e) Avasthit: This denotes steady clairvoyance; that continues till the end of life or may continue even in the succeeding lives.
f) Anavasthit: This denotes unsteady clairvoyance; it increases or decreases like ebb and flow in sea; it is exercisable at some time and may not be exercisable at another time.
ऋजुविपुलमती मनःपर्यायः ॥१-२४॥ विशुद्ध्यप्रतिपाताभ्यां तद्विशेषः ॥१-२५॥ 1.24: Ķjuvipulamati Manahaparyäyah 1.25: Vishuddhyapratipätäbhyäm Tadvisheshah
(Mind reading capacity is of two types, viz. simple and comprehensive. They differ in terms of purity and possibility of losing the capability.)
Manahparyäyjnän (mind reading capaty) is of two types. One is called Rjumati, which knows the functioning of others' mind to a certain extent. The other is called Vipulamati, which knows it to a far greater extent. They arise by different levels of purity. The former can be lost by virtue of lower purity, but the latter continues on account of higher purity and stays till the attainment of omniscience.
