[490] [Prajñāpanasūtra [2] and Asurakumāra to Thanikumarā. [1583-2] In the same way (according to the statement of the aforementioned sūtra), from Asurakumāra to Stanitakumāra (one should understand the three-three bhangas of karma-prakriti-bandha caused by the determination of prāṇātipāta). [3] Pṛthvī-ap-tejo-vāyu-vanaspatikāyika jīvas, all these are like the audhika (general-many) jīvas (Su. 1582) / [1583-3] (karma-prakriti-bandha caused by prāṇātipāta) in the case of earth-water-fire-air-plant-bodied jīvas (as mentioned in Su. 1582) (karma-prakriti-bandha) should be said to be the same. [4] The rest are like the Nairyikas / [1583-4] The remaining jīvas (up to the Vaimānikas, in the matter of karma-prakriti-bandha caused by prāṇātipāta) should be said to be like the Nairyikas. 1584. [1] And these jīvagidijavvajja three-three bhangas should be said everywhere / and (from mṛṣāvāda to) mithyādarśanaśalya (determinations) (one should also state the karma-bandha caused by them /). [1584-1] In this way, leaving aside the collective jīvas and the one-sensed ones (for each of the remaining daṇḍakas), three-three bhangas should be said everywhere / and (from mṛṣāvāda to) mithyādarśanaśalya (determinations) (one should also state the karma-bandha caused by them /). [2] And there are thirty-six daṇḍakas, including ekattva and pṛthaktva / [1584-2] In this way, there are thirty-six daṇḍakas, including ekattva and pṛthaktva. Discussion-The presentation of the form of karma-bandha caused by prāṇātipāta etc.-In the present four sūtras (from 1581 to 1584), the form of karma-prakriti-bandha caused by the determination of prāṇātipāta etc., which is the cause of prāṇātipāta etc. actions, has been presented. When are the seven-fold bandha and the eight-fold bandha? When does a jīva do the seven-fold bandha or the eight-fold karma-bandha? The reason for this is that when there is no prāyuṣya karma-bandha, then there is bandha of seven karma-prakritis, and in the time of āyuṣyakarma-bandha, there is bandha of eight karma-prakritis. This has been considered from the point of view of ekattva. When considered from the point of view of pṛthaktva, many ordinary jīvas are either found to be seven-fold bandhakas or eight-fold bandhakas / these are always found in greater numbers in both places / In the Nairyika sūtra, there are seven-fold bandhakas; because narakas, which are full of the results of violence etc., are always available in large numbers. Therefore, there is no doubt about their being seven-fold bandhakas. When there is not even one āyuṣya bandhaka, then all are seven-fold bandhakas. When there is one prāyuṣka bandhaka, then the rest are all seven-fold bandhakas / When many eight-fold bandhakas are found, then there is a plural form in both. That is, many seven-fold bandhakas and many eight-fold bandhakas / In this way, from three bhangas...
