Gommatasar Karmakanda-323
Since the Tirthankaras, the three types of gods and goddesses, and the Kalpavasini goddesses do not have the essence of a hellish existence, there are 146 sattvayogya (capable of attaining liberation) natures and 4 gunasthanas (stages of spiritual development). In the Mithyatva (false belief), Misra (mixed), and Asanyata (uncontrolled) gunasthanas, there is absolutely no absence of sattva (positive qualities) or sattvavyuccheddi (elimination of negative qualities). However, in the Sasadan (purified) gunasthanas, there is the absence of sattva for the two Aharaka (food-consuming) natures, 144 sattva natures, and also the absence of sattvavyuccheddi. In the three types of gods and goddesses and the Kalpavasini goddesses, the perception related to sattva, asattva, and sattvavyuccheddi is as follows:
Sattvayogya Prakriti (Capable of attaining liberation) 146, Gunasthanas 4
Gunasthanas | Asattva | Sattva | Vishesh | Sattvavyuccheddi
------- | -------- | -------- | -------- | --------
Mithyatva | 146 | 146 | 146 | 146
Misra | 146 | 146 | 146 | 146
Asanyata | 146 | 146 | 146 | 146
Sasadan | 2 (Aharaka) | 144 | 144 | 144
Further, the text discusses sattva and other qualities in the context of the senses and the body:
"Oghan panchakhatase, sesindiyakayage apunna va. Teuduge na naraau savvatthuvellanaavi have." (349)
Meaning: The discussion of sattva and other qualities in the five senses and the three types of bodies is similar to that in the gunasthanas. There are 148 sattvayogya natures. The remaining, from one sense to four senses, and from earth to plant bodies, have 145 natures like the Tirthankaras, hellish beings, and those who have attained liberation. However, in the fire body and air body, there is no sattva of a human existence, therefore, there are 144 sattva natures in these two. There is also an awakening of all the natures in the senses and the body.
Special Meaning: In the senses and the body, there are 148 sattva natures in the five senses and the three types of bodies. There are 14 gunasthanas. One should understand the discussion of sattva and other qualities as similar to that in the gunasthanas. In the remaining, one sense, two senses, three senses, and four senses, and in the earth body, water body, and plant body, there are 145 sattva natures without the Tirthankaras, hellish beings, and those who have attained liberation. There are two gunasthanas. Here, there is no asattva in the Mithyatva gunasthanas, and there are 145 sattva natures. In the Sasadan gunasthanas, there is asattva for the two Aharaka natures, and there are 143 sattva natures. Since there is no sattva of a human existence in the fire body and air body, there are 144 sattva natures. There is one Mithyatva gunasthanas.
