Pravacanasāra
(agurulaghutva), are some general (sāmānya) qualities of substances. Assistance in providing accommodation (avagāhanahetutva), assistance in motion (gatihetutva), assistance in rest (sthitihetutva), assistance in continuity of being through gradual changes (vartanāhetutva), colouration (rūpa) etc., and consciousness (cetanatva), are some specific (višeșa) qualities of substances. Modification in the qualities of a substance is mode (paryāya). The substance (dravya) is the aim (laksya) of knowledge; origination-destruction-permanence and qualitiesmodes are the marks (lakṣaṇa) of the aim (laksya) of knowledge. Although there is difference with respect to these being called as the aim (laksya) and the marks (laksaņa), there is no difference bewteen the two; both are of the nature of the object. When a dirty cloth gets bright on washing, there is origination of brightness and destruction of dirtiness, but the cloth itself remains the same. Each substance continually experiences origination of a new state, destruction of the previous state, and permanence with regard to its substantiveness. The substance (dravya) is not anything different from its qualities (guņa); qualities are its own-nature (svabhāva). Similarly, the substance (dravya) is not anything different from its modes (paryāya); modes are its own-nature (svabhāva).
