The commentary lists the fourteen classes of living beings (jīvasamāsa) of Jain doctrine: one-sensed subtle and gross, two-, three- and four-sensed, and five-sensed beings without and with a mind, each either fully developed (paryāpta) or not. A being is fully developed when the six capacities (intake of food, body, senses, breathing, speech and mind) are completed as far as possible. The fully developed rank above the undeveloped, beings with a mind (saṃjñī, able to tell beneficial from harmful) above those without, and religious humans born in a land rich in dharma above all.
Why it is kept for review: Jain classification of living beings that frames who is treated; no Ayurvedic category fits.
जिनको आहार, शरीर, इन्द्रिय, श्वासोच्छ्वास, भाषा व मन ये छह पर्याप्तियों में यथासंभव पूर्ण हुए हों, उन्हें पर्याप्त जीव कहते हैं।All references
