## Twenty-fifth Karmabandhavedapaka [1773-1 pr.]
**Lord! How many Karma-prakritis does a being experience when it binds Vedaniya Karma?**
[1773-1 ut.] **Gautama! It experiences seven (Karma-prakritis), eight or four (Karma-prakritis).**
[2] **And in the case of humans, it should be said in the same way. From the remaining Nairyikas to the Vaimanikas, beings experience eight Karma-prakritis according to the rule, both with the desire for oneness and with the desire for multiplicity.**
[1773-2]
## [1774-1 pr.] Lord! How many Karma-prakritis do many beings experience when they bind Vedaniya Karma?
[1774-1 ut.] **Gautama!**
1. **All beings, when they bind Vedaniya Karma, are experiencers of eight or four Karma-prakritis.**
2. **Or, many beings are experiencers of eight or four Karma-prakritis, and some one being is an experiencer of seven Karma-prakritis.**
3. **Or, many beings are experiencers of eight, four or seven Karma-prakritis.**
[1774-2] **In the same way, it should be said about many humans at the time of binding Vedaniya Karma.**
**|| Pannavanaye Bhagavatiye Panchvasiyam Karmabandhavedapayam Samattam ||**
**Discussion:**
At the time of Karmabandha, there are five conclusions regarding the experience of Karma:
1. According to the statement mentioned in relation to the collective beings, Nairyikas, Asurakumara, etc. Bhavanapati, Prithvikaayika, etc. Ekaindriya, Vikalendriya, Tiryanchpanchendriya, Manushya, Vanavyantara, Jyotishka and Vaimanika also experience eight Karma-prakritis according to the rule, both with the desire for oneness and with the desire for multiplicity, while binding Jnanavaraniya Karma.
2. Similarly, it should be understood in relation to all other Karmas except Vedaniya (Darshanavaraniya, Nama, Gotra, Aayushya, Mohaniya and Antaraya).
3. Collective beings experience seven, eight or four Karma-prakritis while binding Vedaniya Karma, with respect to oneness and multiplicity. The reason for this is that beings with Upshantamoha and Kshinamaha experience seven Karma-prakritis, because they do not experience Mohaniya Karma. Beings from Mithyadrishti Gunasthan to Sukshmasampraya (tenth Gunasthan) experience all eight Karma-prakritis.
