All Position 6 in Its Cycle

The sixth position in a six-stage cosmic time cycle, continuing this type's own numbered convention for schemes whose stages are conventionally counted by position rather than given individual names across every tradition that uses them. Dushama-dushama is the sixth and final ara of the avasarpini, the descending half of the beginningless Jain cosmic time cycle, the age still to come after the present Dushama age ends, described in Jain cosmology as a period of universal suffering and decline before the cycle turns and begins its ascending half again.
