Gommatasara Karmakanda-346
The second state of Abaddhayushka, with 144 natures, is the state of being bound by one lifespan, minus the lifespan itself. Therefore, there are four types of destruction for the lifespan of beings in all four realms. The state of being bound by Tiryanchayu, with Tiryanchayu, is found in 144 natures. The state of being bound by Narakayu, with Narakayu, is found in 144 natures. In this way, one should know the different types of destruction due to the change in natures, and similarly, one should know it elsewhere as well.
If a Mithyadristi being has previously attained the state of Aprammatta Guna and has not bound the fourfold food there, then it does not have the state of the fourfold food. Or, if a being has bound the fourfold food in the state of Aprammatta Guna, and later becomes Asanyami or Mithyadristi, and by stirring up the fourfold food, becomes devoid of the state of the fourfold food, such a being is born as a human, and after binding Narakayu, attains Vedak Samyaktva, and becomes an Asanyata Guna state dweller. By contemplating the sixteen-fold cause-effect meditation near a Kevali or Shruta Kevali, it binds the Tirthankara nature, and due to the state of the Tirthankara nature, it becomes a Mithyadristi capable of going to the third earth, with the remnants of the consumed aura, which are first Sarjiniya.
The third state of Abaddhayushka, without Tiryanchayu, Devayu, and the fourfold food, is found in 142 natures. There is only one destruction there. Therefore, the state of 142 natures is found in this way, and not in any other way.
The one who has previously bound the human-Tiryanchayu does not bind the Tirthankara nature, and the one who has bound Devayu can have the state of the Tirthankara nature, but not a Mithyadristi.
Doubt: If the beginning of the binding of the Tirthankara nature is said to be in humans, then how is it said that the Asanyata Deva-Naraki bind the Tirthankara nature?
Solution: Although the beginning of the binding of the Tirthankara nature is in humans, if it does not deviate from Samyaktva, then it continues to bind the Tirthankara nature in a time-bound manner, in an excellent way, from the moment of death to the end of the thirty-three Sagaras, two koti years, and eight years more. Therefore, the binding of the Tirthankara nature also occurs in Deva-Naraki.
The third state of Abaddhayushka is also devoid of the state of Manushyayu. Therefore, it is 141 natures without Tiryancha-Manushya-Devayu and the fourfold food. If a being with the state of the Tirthankara nature dies and goes to the second or third Naraka, and remains a Mithyadristi for three moments, due to the state of being insufficient, etc., it does not have the state of any other lifespan, except for the consumed Narakayu. This type of state is found in this being, therefore there is only one destruction, and such a state is not found in any other way.
