Discussion- Mithyadristi, which is filled with extreme karmic consequences, binds the aforementioned 25 types of karma to the Vikalendriya Jiva. It is important to note here that Vikalendriya Jivas are of three types, based on the number of senses they possess: Dvi-indriya, Tri-indriya, and Chatur-indriya. Therefore, when a Jiva binds the aforementioned types of karma suitable for a Dvi-indriya-Apariaptka, it will bind Dvi-indriya jati karma instead of Vikalendriya jati karma. Similarly, a Jiva binding karma suitable for a Tri-indriya or Chatur-indriya jati will bind Tri-indriya or Chatur-indriya jati karma. This is because there is no Vikalendriya jati category within the 5 types of jati karma. The term 'Vikalendriya' is used in this Sutra due to the requirement of mentioning 25 types of karma each, and to avoid the repetition of mentioning these types three times for each of the three types of Vikalendriya.
170- Ganga-Sindhu and the other great rivers fall into 25 kosha wide, thick, pot-shaped mouths, and then flow out through a channel resembling the tongue of a crocodile's mouth, forming a pearl necklace-like waterfall. Similarly, the Rakta-Raktavati great rivers also fall into 25 kosha wide, thick, pot-shaped mouths, and then flow out through a channel resembling the tongue of a crocodile's mouth, forming a pearl necklace-like waterfall.
Discussion- The Ganga Mahadhi flows out from the eastern entrance of the Padma-draha, located on top of the small Himvant Kulachal or Varshadhar Parvat, and the Sindhu Mahadhi flows out from the western entrance. Similarly, the Rakta Mahadhi flows out from the eastern entrance of the Pandarika-draha, located on top of the Shikhari Kulachal, and the Raktavati Mahadhi flows out from the western entrance. All four of these great rivers flow for 500 yojanas on top of the mountains before flowing down. After that, the Ganga-Sindhu flow south towards the Bharat Kshetra, and the Rakta-Raktavati flow north towards the Airvat Kshetra, and fall into their respective waterfalls, such as the Ganga-kut, located on the ground. At the point where they fall from the mountain, there is a large, vajra-made channel for them to flow through. The mouth of this channel is round, like the mouth of a pot, facing the mountain, and long and tongue-like, like the tongue of a crocodile, facing the Bharat and other Kshetras. The water flowing down from the mountain appears like a necklace of thousands of pearls. This water flow is 25 kosha, or 1.25 yojanas, wide.
171- Lokabindusar, the fourteenth of the previous 25 Arthaadhikars, is called Vastu.
