________________ • Tadādīni bhājyāni yugapadekasyä caturbhyaḥ || Any worldly living being can possess, at any given time, from these two to four of these bodies (the Aharaka and the Vaikriya bodies are incompatible). If a soul has two bodies, they are - Taijasa and Karmana; if it has three, they are Taijasa, Karmana and Auda rika/Vaikriya; if it has four bodies, they are Taijasa, Karmaṇa, Audārika and Vaikriya/Āhāraka. A soul cannot, perse, possess one body as Taijasa and Karmaṇa bodies are inseparable from the soul during its worldly existence. However, a view exists that only Kā rmana body is possible and that even Taijasa body is through special attainments just as the Vaikriya and the Aharaka bodies are.
