Ajiva (Non-soul)
Ajiva is not mearly the form of negative of jiva (soul) but it is positive verity standing opposed to Jiva (soul).
धम्माऽधम्मागासा, तिय-तिय- भेया तहेव अद्धा य ।
खंधा देस पसा, परमाणु अजीव चउदसहा । । ८ ।
dhamma'ahammāgāsā tiya-tiya bheya taheva addha ya khamdha desa paesā paramāņu ajīva caudasahā. [8]
धर्माधर्माकाशास्त्रिकत्रिकभेदास्तथैवाद्धा च ।
स्कन्धा देश-प्रदेशाः परमाणवो ऽजीवश्चतुर्दशधा । । ८ ।
Dharmāstikāya (medium of motion), adharamāstikāya (medium of rest) and ākāśāstikāya (space) has three divisions where kāla (time) has only one. Similary, pudgalāstikāya (matter) is devided into skandha (molecules), deśa (a part of molecules), pradeśa (a subtle constituent partless part of molecules) as paramāņu (a subtle part of matter separated from molecules). In this way ajīva (non-soul) has total fourteen divisions. (8)
धम्माऽधम्मा पुग्गल, नह कालो पंच हुंति अज्जीवा ।
चलणसहावो धम्मो, थिरसंठाणो अहम्मो य ॥ ६ ॥
dhamma'dhammā puggala naha kālo paṁca huṁti ajjīvā cālana sahāvo dhammo thirasamthāno ahammo ya. [9].
धर्माधम पुद्गलाः नभः कालः पंच भवन्त्यजीवाः
चलनस्वभावो धर्मः, स्थिरसंस्थानो ऽधर्मश्च ।। ६ ।।
Dharamāstikāya (medium of motion), adharmāstikāya (medium of rest), pudgala (matter), akāśā (space) and kāla (time) are five fundamental varities of ajīva (non-soul). Dharmastikāya and adharmastikāya are the auxilary cause of motion and rest of soul and non-soul respectively. (9)
अवगाहो आगासं, पुग्गलजीवाण पुग्गला चऊहा । खंधा देस पएसा, परमाणु चैव नायव्वा ।। १० ।।
