Gommatasara Karmakanda-474: Regarding the three Gunasthanas, the number of bhangas in relation to the number of prakritis:
* In the Sasadan Gunasthan, there are 32 prakritis, each with 16 bhangas. Therefore, 32 x 16 = 512.
* In the Asanyata Gunasthan, there are 120 prakritis, each with 16 bhangas. Therefore, 120 x 16 = 1920.
* In the Asanyata Gunasthan, there are 60 prakritis, each with 8 bhangas. Therefore, 60 x 8 = 480.
* In the Pramatta Gunasthan, there are 88 prakritis, each with 8 bhangas. Therefore, 88 x 8 = 704.
The author of the Veda, in the context of the number of prakritis in these Gunasthanas, himself denies the existence of the Napumsaka-Stri Veda:
"Natthi Naunsayavedo, Itthivedo Naunsayitthiduge.
Puvvuttapunnajogagachaduththanesu Janejo." ||497||
Meaning: In the four Gunasthanas that have attained the Aparyapta Yoga, as mentioned earlier, there are no Napumsaka-Stri Vedas. And in the remaining two Gunasthanas, there are also no Napumsaka-Stri Vedas.
Explanation: In the Sasadan Gunasthan, there is no Napumsaka Veda in the Vaikriya-Mishra-Kaya Yoga, because those who are in the Sasadan Gunasthan do not go to hell after death. In the Asanyata Gunasthan, there is no Stri Veda in the Vaikriya-Mishra-Kaya Yoga and the Karman-Kaya Yoga, because those who are in the Asanyata Gunasthan do not become Strivedi after death. In the Asanyata Gunasthan, there are no Stri or Napumsaka Vedas in the Audarika-Mishra-Kaya Yoga, and in the Pramatta Gunasthan, there are no Stri or Napumsaka Vedas in the Aharaka-Aharaka-Mishra-Kaya Yoga, because those who are in the Asanyata Gunasthan are not born as Tiryancha or humans with Napumsaka or Stri Vedas, and those with Stri or Napumsaka Vedas do not have the Aharaka-Aharaka-Mishra-Kaya Yoga. Here, all the Gunasthanas from the Mithyatva Gunasthan to the Apurvakarana Gunasthan should be added together, and then multiplied by 24 bhangas. The result should then be added to the Saveda-Aveda Bhaga of the Anivrittikarana Gunasthan, the 153 Gunasthanas of the Sukshma-Samparaya Gunasthan, and the 552 Gunasthanas of the Sasadan, Asanyata, and Pramatta Gunasthanas.
The number obtained by adding all the Gunasthanas in relation to the Yogas, as described above, is called the Pramana:
"Tevannavasayahibarasahasappamanamudayassa.
Thanaviyappe Janasu Jogam Padi Mohaniyassa." ||498||
Meaning: In this way, the number of Udayasthanas of the Mohaniya Karma, in relation to the Yogas, is 12,953.
