Gommatsar Karmakanda - 172
**Special Note:** These 30 types of karma have their **utkrista pradeshabandha** (highest level of binding) in the ** श्रेणी** ( श्रेणी) category. However, the **apratyakhyanavaranakashaya** (non-rejection covering karma) has its **utkrista pradeshabandha** in the **fourth guna sthana** (fourth stage of spiritual development), and the **pratyakhyanavaran** (rejection covering karma) has its **utkrista pradeshabandha** in the **fifth guna sthana** (fifth stage of spiritual development). Therefore, for those who have not attained the ** श्रेणी** ( श्रेणी) or the fourth and fifth **guna sthana**, the **anutkrista pradeshabandha** (lower level of binding) of these 30 types of karma is **anadi** (beginningless). For those who have ascended and then fallen back, it is **sadi** (with a beginning). It is **adhruva** (unstable) in relation to a **bhavya** (being destined for liberation) and **dhruva** (stable) in relation to an **abhavya** (being destined for endless cycles of rebirth).
The **utkrista pradeshabandha** of the remaining karmas can occur repeatedly due to the possibility of **sanjipancheindriya paryapta jivas** (beings with five senses and sufficient knowledge) existing. Therefore, the **anutkrista pradeshabandha** of the remaining types of karma is **sadi** (with a beginning) and **adhruva** (unstable).
Except for **ayu** (life span) karma, the **jghanya pradeshabandha** (lowest level of binding) of all types of karma occurs in the first **bhaava** (state of existence) of a **sukshma ekendriya aparyapta jiva** (being with one sense and insufficient knowledge), which can occur repeatedly. The binding of **ayu** karma only occurs during the **eight apकर्षकाल** (eight periods of decline). Therefore, the **utkrista**, **jghanya**, and **ajghanya pradeshabandha** of the 30 types of karma, and the **utkrista**, **anutkrista**, **jghanya**, and **ajghanya pradeshabandha** of the remaining types of karma, are **kadaachitk** (occasional), making them **sadi** (with a beginning) and **adhruva** (unstable).
