Gommatasar Karmakanda-104: The excellent state of bondage for the three-sensory, four-sensory, subtle, ordinary, and insufficient is 18 Kodakodi Sagara according to the evidence of the Tirthankaras. Arati, sorrow, impotence, animal existence, animal existence in the past, fear, disgust, hell, hell in the past, luminous body, karmic body, and generous body, generous limbs, changing body, changing limbs, heat, light, low stature, S, Badar, Payat, and each, four types of Vana, heavy and light, attack, counter-attack, exhalation, one-sensory, five-sensory, stationary, creation, inappropriate liberation, and unstable, inauspicious, unfortunate, bad voice, unworthy, and bad reputation, thus all these 41 natures have an excellent state of bondage of 20 Kodakodi Sagara. Laughter, pleasure, high lineage, male knowledge, and stable, auspicious, fortunate, good voice, worthy, and good reputation, appropriate liberation, heavenly existence, and heavenly existence in the past, these 13 natures have an excellent state of bondage of 10 Kodakodi Sagara. The excellent state of bondage for the food body, food limbs, and Tirthankara nature is within Kodakodi Sagara (one crore more and less than Kodakodi). The excellent state of bondage for the heavenly lifespan and hell lifespan is 33 Sagara like the original nature, and the excellent state of bondage for the human lifespan and animal lifespan is three Palya. This excellent state of bondage can only happen for the five-sensory being who is fully aware. ||133||
Special Meaning: The excellent state of bondage for auspicious and inauspicious karma happens only for the beings of the four paths who have the appropriate excellent karmic influence. The beings with excellent karmic influence will have bondage of inappropriate natures, not the bondage of the seven, etc. Among these natures, the Tirthankara and food body are not the cause of the three worlds.
"All beings who are liberated are liberated by the excellent karmic influence. The beings who are bound are bound by the appropriate karmic influence." ||134||
Meaning: The excellent state of bondage for the other 117 natures besides the animal, human, and heavenly lifespans happens due to the appropriate excellent karmic influence. And the inferior state of bondage happens due to the appropriate pure influence. The excellent state of bondage for the three lifespans also happens due to the appropriate pure influence, and the inferior state of bondage happens due to the appropriate karmic influence.
Special Meaning: Besides the excellent karmic influence, the path of the being who is bound is also a cause in the state of bondage. For example, a god binds the one-sensory being due to excellent karmic influence, but does not bind the animal lifespan to the inferior state of bondage. Now, the masters of the excellent state of bondage say:
"All beings who are bound are bound by wrong belief. The food body, Tirthankara, or god liberates them." ||135|| 1. Mahabandha Pu. 2 Pg. 256-257 "Tappao Guggukasae Sankilitee Vattamansa"
