Tattvārthasūtra
pratisevanākuśīla saints, all the six thought-colourations (leśyā) arise. In the kaşāyakuśīla saint the last four - grey (kāpota), yellow (pīta), pink (padma) and white (śukla) – thought-colourations (leśyā) arise. In the sūkşmasāmparāya kasāyakuśīla, nirgrantha and snātaka saints, only the white (śukla) thought-colourations (leśyā) arises. And the Omniscient-without-activity (ayogakevalī) has no thoughtcolouration (leśyā). Upapāda: The highest birth of the pulāka saint is in the Sahasrāra kalpa, among the deva of maximum lifetime. The bakuśa and pratisevanākuśīla saints are born in the Araña and Acyuta kalpa, with the lifetime of twenty-two sāgaropama. The kaṣāyakuśīla and nirgrantha saints are born in the Sarvārthasiddhi with the lifetime of thirty-three sāgaropama. The lowest birth of all these kinds of saints is in the Saudharma kalpa with the lifetime of two sāgaropama. The snātaka saint attains liberation. Sthāna: There are innumerable states of self-restraint (samyama) caused by the passions. Among these the minimum states attained are in case of the pulāka and kaşāyakuśīla saints. These attain innumerable states simultaneously. After this the pulāka saint is cutoff. Later, the kaşāyakuśīla saint proceeds alone up to innumerable states. Still further, the kaşāyakuśīla, pratisevanākuśīla, and bakuša attain innumerable states simultaneously. After that the bakusa saint is cutoff. Then the pratisevanākuśīla saint is cut off after attaining still innumerable states. Beyond that the passionless (akasāya) saintnirgrantha - attains innumerable passionless states. That stage also is cut off after traversing innumerable states. And traversing one state beyond that, the snātaka saint attains liberation. The attainment of self-restraint-samyamalabdhi – in that stage is infinitefold.
