5. जीवो उवोगमओ अमुत्ति कत्ता सदेह परिमाणो ।
भोत्ता संसारस्थो सिद्धो सो विस्ससोडगई ॥ २॥ तिक्काले चदु पाणा इंदियवनमाउ आण पाणी य । ववहारा सो जीवो णिछयण यदो दु चेदणा जस्स ॥ ३ ॥
Drarya-samgraha, 2, 3. It (the soul) is (1) jira (that which lires); (2) possessed of upayoga, which is of two kinds, the power of perceiving (darsana) and knoring (jnana)]; (8) amirta (immaterial) ; (4) kartā (the doer of all actions): (5) sradeha-parimāņa (of the size of its boily, which it completely fills): (6) bhokta (enjoyer of the fruits of actions); (7) samsārastha (located in the changing universe); (8) siddha (in its perfect condition a Siddha); (9) īrdhragati (of an upward tendency). That which in the three times has four prāņas (senses, power, vitality, and respiration) is conventionally soul : but from the essential point of view that which has consciousness is soul.
III. ATTRIBUTES OF THE NON-SOUL 65. आगासकाल पुग्गल धम्माधम्मेमु ण त्यि जीवगुणा । तेसिं अचेदण तं भणिदं जीवस्स चेदणदा ॥ १२४ ॥
Panchāstikāya, 121. Space, time, matter, dharma, and adharma have not the qualities of soul; they are said to be non-conscious, whereas soul has consciousness.
IV. THE SIX SUBSTANCES 7. दवियदि गच्छदि ताई ताई समावपज्जयाई जं । दवियं तं भगं ते अणमभूदं तु सत्तादो ॥ ९ ॥
____ Paichāstikāya, 9. That which runs, i.e. passes, into such and such natures and modifications is called drarya (substance). It is never distinct from existence (sattā).
