Gommatasar Karmakanda-216
The number of states of a single nature, up to the state of excellence, is the number of states of that nature. How many states are there in relation to the aforementioned states of all the successive natures? Thus, by the rule of three, the number of states is the product of the number of states and the number of variations of nature. And the number of states of bondage is countless times the number of states. The term "state of bondage" refers to the cause of bondage in the states arising from the respective natures. The state of bondage is not the state of passions.
**Numerical Calculation:**
There are 3100 forms of results due to the bondage of a single nature, and there are 40 states of that single nature. Write down 2 for five times (22222) and multiply them together. The product is 32. Multiply this product by the number of states in a single passion, which is 8. This gives us the number of states in a single passion. Divide the number of states (40) by the number of passions (5), which gives us 8. This is the number of states in a single passion. Double this number to get the number of states in a double passion. The number of states of bondage in the lowest state of bondage is 9. According to the formula "Padahtamukhamadi Dhanam," the number of states in a single passion is the product of the number of states (8) and the initial amount (9), which is 72. Divide the initial amount (9) by the number of states in a single passion (8) plus one, which is 9. This is the number of states in a single passion. Add one to the number of states in each state to get the number of states of bondage up to the first passion. According to the formula "Vyekpadarthadhanachaya Gunogachch Uttaradhanam," multiply half the number of states (8) by the number of states in a single passion (1) and then multiply the result by the number of states (8). This gives us the total number of states in a single passion. Half of 8 minus 1 is 3.5. Multiplying this by 1 gives us 3.5. Multiplying this by 8 gives us 28. This is the total number of states in a single passion. Add the initial amount (72) and the final amount (28) to get the total number of states in the first passion. 72 + 28 = 100. This is the total number of states in the first passion. The number of states in each passion is double the number of states in the previous passion. Therefore, the number of states in the first passion is 100, the number of states in the second passion is 200, the number of states in the third passion is 400, the number of states in the fourth passion is 800, and the number of states in the fifth passion is 1600. Multiply the initial amount by half the product of the number of passions (5) minus 1, which is 4, and the number 2 written four times (2222), which is 16. This gives us the number of states in the last passion.
