Dhammo ahammo agasam, kalo
puggala jantavo.
Esa logo tti pannatto,
kinehim varadamsihim. (624)
The supreme visioned Jinas
have described the universe to be constituted of six substances viz. Dharma
(medium of motion), Adharma (medium of rest), Akasa (space), kala (time),
Pudgala (matter) and Jiva (soul). (624)
Agasakalapuggala-dhammadhammesu natthi jivaguna.
Tesim acedanattam, bhanidam
jivassa cedanada. (625)
The substances, Akasa, kala,
Pudgala, Dharma and Adharma, do not possess the attributes of the Jiva (i.e.
devoid of life) and they therefore have been called Ajivas (non-living). The
attribute of Jiva is consciousness. (625)
Agasakalajiva,
dhammadhamma ya muttiparihina.
Muttam puggaladavvam, jivo
khalu cedano tesu. (626)
Aksa, Kala, Jiva, Dharma and
Adharma are incorporeal, where as Pudgala (matter) is corporeal. Of these,
only the soul substance is conscious. (626)
Jiva puggalakaya, saha
sakkiriya havamti na ya sesa.
Puggalakarana jiva, khamdha
khalu kalakarana du. (627)
The Jiva (soul), the Pudgala
(matter), these two substances are active, while the rest are inactive. The
external cause of the activity of soul is Karmic matter and of the activity
of matter is the substance kala (time). (627)
Dhammo ahammo agasam,
davvam ikkikkamahiyam.
Anamtani ya davvani, kalo
puggala jamtavo. (628)
Dharma, Adharma and Akasa are
singular in number, Kala, Pudgala and Jiva-these three are infinite in
number. (628)
Dhammadhamme ya do'vee,
logamitta viyahiya.
Logaloge ya agase, samae
samayakhettie. (629)
Dharma and Adharma-bothe
these substances have their extension throughout the universe, while Akasa
(space) pervades the universe and beyond the universe. Kala pervades only
the time region. (629)
Annonnam pavisamta, dimta
ogasamannamannassa.
Melamta vi ya niccam, sagam
sabhavam na vijahanti. (630)
These six substances (dravyas)
are co-extensive in the same space and accommodate one-another, they are
mixed up with one another from the time infinite. However, they maintain
their identity without loosing their respective nature. (630)
Dhammatthikayamarasam,
avannagandham asaddamapphasam.
Logogadham puttham,
pihulamasamkhadiya-padesam. (631)
Dharmastikaya is devoid of
the attributes like taste, colour, smell, sound and touch. It pervades
universe, it is independent, huge and has innumberable pradesas, i.e.,
spacepoints. (631)
Udayam jaha macchanam,
gamananuggahayaram havadi loe.
Taha jivapuggalanam, dhammam
davvam viyanehi. (632)
Just as water is helpful in
the movement of fishes so is the Dharma in the movement of souls and matter.
(632)
Na ya gacchadi dhammatthi,
gamanam na karedi annadaviyas.
Havadi gati sa ppasaro,
jivanam puggalanam ca. (633)
Dharmastikaya does not move
itself nor cause other things to move; but it is an all pervading medium of
motion for the living and non-living bodies. (633)
Jaha havadi dhammadavvam,
taha tam janeha davvamadhammakkham.
Thidikiriyajuttanam,
karanabhudam tu pudhaviva. (634)
Know that just as Dharma is
substance, so is the Adharma. It is helpful in bringing about the rest of
the Jivas and Pudgalas capable of being static. (634)
Ceyanarahiyamamuttam,
avagahanalakkhanam ca savvagayam.
Loyaloyavibheyam, tam
nahadavvam jinuddittham. (635)
The substance space is devoid
of consciousness, is incorporeal, accommodating and all-pervading. It is of
two types one is lokakasa i.e., (space within the universe) and Alokakasa
i.e., space beyond the universe. (635)
Jiva ceva ajiva ya, esa
loe viyahie.
Ajivadesamagase, aloe se
viyahie. (636)
It is explained that the loka,
i.e., universe consists of living and non-living substances, whereas Aloka
consista of only a part of one non-living substance i.e., (space) (636)
Pasarasagamdhavanna-vvadiritto agurulahugasamjutto.
Vattanalakkhanakaliyam,
kalasaruvam imam hodi. (637)
The substance time is devoid
of attributes like touch, tast, smell and colour and properties like
heaviness and lightness. It is characterized by mutation. (637)
