## The Binding of Karmic Conditions in Two-Sensed Beings (Dwi-Indriya) from the Prajnapana Sutra
**1715.** "O Bhagavan! How long do two-sensed beings bind the karma of knowledge-obscuring (Jnana-Avaraniya)? "
**1715.** "Gautama! They bind for a time that is less than an inconceivable number of parts of a Palya-upam, which is twenty-five times less than a Sagara-upam, and in the highest case, they bind for the full duration."
**1716.** "Similarly, one should know the state of the five-fold sleep (Nidra-Panchaka) - sleep, sleeplessness, restlessness, extreme restlessness, and dullness."
**1717.** "Just as the binding state of one-sensed beings (Eka-Indriya) has been described, so too should the binding state of two-sensed beings be described. Where the one-sensed beings do not bind (certain karmic conditions), these (two-sensed beings) also do not bind them."
**1718.** "O Bhagavan! How long do two-sensed beings bind the karma of false belief (Mithyatva-Vedaniya)?"
**1718.** "Gautama! They bind for a time that is less than an inconceivable number of parts of a Palya-upam, which is twenty-five times less than a Sagara-upam, and in the highest case, they bind for the full duration."
**1719.** "Two-sensed beings bind the karma of the animal lifespan (Tiryak-Joniya) for a minimum of an Antarmukha (a very short time) and in the highest case, for four years more than a Purva-Kodi-Varsha (a hundred million years)."
**1720.** "Similarly, one should know the binding state of the human lifespan (Manushya-Ayus). The rest, up to the karma of obstruction (Antaraya), should be known in the same way as for the one-sensed beings."
