Gommatasara Karmakanda-512
There are six locations of nature in the Tiryancha (animals) - 23, 25, 26, 28, 29, and 30. There are seven locations of nature in humans - 23, 25, 26, 28, 29, 30, and 31, and one location of nature in the 5th nature. Bhava-vid and Saudharma-pala have four locations of nature - 21, 26, 29, and 30. In the Anaharamargana (path of non-eating), in the state of Vigraha-gati (state of disintegration), there are two locations of nature for Devas (gods) and Narakas (hells) - 29 and 30. In the Tiryancha, there are six locations of nature - 23, 25, 26, 28, 29, and 30. Among these, the location of nature with 28, combined with the Deva-gati, is only for the Asanyata (uncontrolled). In humans, there are six locations of nature - 23, 25, 26, 28, 29, and 30. In this way, the locations of binding of the Karma (action) are described in the Marganas.
