Gommatasar Karmakanda - 437
Meaning - In the six Gunasthanas up to Aprammatta, the Jiva binds karma in 7 ways without Aayu or in 8 ways with Aayu. In the Misra, Apurvakaran and Anivrittikaran Gunasthanas, only 7 types of karma are bound without Aayu. In the Sukshmasamparaya Gunasthan, only 6 types of karma are bound without Aayu and Moha. In the three (Upshantakashaya, Kshina Kshaya and Sayogkevali) Gunasthanas, only one Vedaniya karma is bound and the Ayogi Gunasthan is devoid of any binding.
"Chattari tini siya, jayaditthanaani mulapayadinam. Avattinidanivi kame honti ||453||
Bhujagara ppadarani ya,
Meaning - The Mula Prakriti Bandhastan, Bhujagara Bandhastan, Alpatar Bandhastan and Avashit Bandhastan are four, three, three and four respectively. ||453||
Special Meaning - Thus, there are four Bandhastanas with eight, seven, six and one Prakriti forms respectively, starting from the general Mula Prakritis. Here, there are three types of Bhujakara Bandha, descending from the Upshama श्रेणी. In the Upshantakashaya Gunasthan, there was binding of one Prakriti, and when it moved to the Sukshmasamparaya Gunasthan, it bound six Prakritis, thus making one Bhujakara Bandha. And, in the Sukshmasamparaya Gunasthan, there was binding of six Prakritis, and when it attained the Anivrittikaran Gunasthan, it bound seven Prakritis, thus making another Bhujakara Bandha. In the Apurvakaran Gunasthan, there was binding of seven Prakritis, and when it moved down to the Prammattadi Gunasthanas, it will bind eight Prakritis, thus making another Bhujakara Bandha. In this way, there are three Bhujakara Bandhas.
Similarly, there are three Alpatar Bandhas - binding of seven karmas after binding of eight karmas is one Alpatar Bandha, binding of six Prakritis after binding of seven Prakritis is the second Alpatar Bandha, and binding of one Prakriti after binding of six Prakritis is another Alpatar Bandha. Thus, know these three types of Alpatar Bandhas.
The binding of the same number of karmas in the subsequent time as the number of karmas bound in the previous time is called Avashit Bandha. It also has four types - binding of eight karmas in the subsequent time after binding of eight karmas in the previous time is the first Avashit Bandha, binding of seven karmas in the subsequent time after binding of seven karmas in the previous time is the second type of Avashit Bandha. Binding of six karmas in the subsequent time after binding of six karmas in the previous time is the third Avashit Bandha, and binding of one karma in the subsequent time after binding of one karma in the previous time is the fourth Avashit Bandha. Thus, know these four types of Avashit Bandha.
