१. In place of this one 'aphorism स. रा. श्लो. have two-viz. 'द्रव्याणि' and as'. Siddhasena says: 'Some read it as two aphorisms in the above manner, that is not proper'. Before Akalanka too somebody has raised the objection : 'Why not have one aphorism 'द्रव्याणि जीवाः' without an inclusion of the word '?? Vidyānanda says that the two aphorisms have been composed just for the sake of a clear comprehension.
२. Siddhasena says : “Some break this aphorism into two-viz. 'नित्यावस्थितानि' and 'अरूपाणि'. In his commentary he also gives an alternative reading 'नित्यावस्थितारूपाणि'; again, he indicates a third reading : 'नित्यावस्थितान्यरूपीणि'. He further says : "according to some the word 'नित्य' is an adjective of 3tafeta'. For the alternative views relating to the explanation of this aphorism, Siddhasena's commentary ought to be consulted.
३. See note on 5. 5, p. 179. ४. धर्माधर्मैकजीवानाम् - स. रा. श्लो॰ ।
५. स. रा. श्लो. do not have it as a separate aphorism. Why it has been given as a separate aphorism--this secret is revealed by Siddhasena.
