Gommatasara Karmakanda - 521
Thus, there are 22 Bhujakarabandha places for the name karma (4+5+4+3+3+2+1).
**Special Note:** Now, in the 41 steps of Badarpৃথিবীকায় etc. mentioned earlier, we are mentioning the places with their bhangas:
* There are 11 types of places for the 23 types of karmas that bind, including the subtle Badar and each type of plant, along with the 11 varieties of Aparýapta Ekendriya (deficient one-sensed beings). Here, there is only one bhang for each, so there are 11 bhangas for these 11 places.
* In the binding of 25 types of karmas, there are 8 bhangas each for the types of karmas that bind, including the Badar, Paryapta पृथিবীকায়, Apkay, Tejakarya, Vayukay, and each type of plant, with five varieties, due to the movement (change) of the types of karmas in the pairs of Sthira, Shubha, and Yashaskirti. Therefore, there are 40 bhangas in total.
* There are 4 bhangas each for the types of karmas that bind, including the Paryapta Badar, Sadharan, and Sukshma Paryapta पृथিবীকায়, Ap, Teja, Vayu, and Sadharan plant, with six varieties, due to the movement (change) of the types of karmas in the pairs of Sthira and Shubha. Therefore, there are 24 bhangas in total.
* There are only 6 bhangas for the six varieties of Aparýapta Dwīndriya, Trīndriya, Chaturindriya, Asanjnī, Sanjnī, Panchendriya, Tiryanch, and Manushya, as only the Aprashastha types of karmas bind in these.
* Thus, there are a total of 70 bhangas for the 25 types of karmas that bind (40+24+6).
* In the 26 types of karmas that bind, there are 8 bhangas each for the types of karmas that bind in the four places, including the Badarpৃথিবীকায়, Atap and Udyot, Apkay and Vanaspatikay, with Udyot, due to the movement (change) of the types of karmas in the pairs of Sthira, Shubha, and Yashaskirti. Therefore, there are 32 bhangas (8x4).
* In the 28 types of karmas that bind, including the Devagati, there are 8 bhangas each for the types of karmas that bind in the three pairs of Sthira etc. mentioned earlier. And in the same place, including the Narakagati, there is one bhang for the binding of the Aprashastha types of karmas. Thus, there are 9 bhangas for the 28 types of karmas that bind.
* In the 29 types of karmas that bind, there are 8 bhangas each for the types of karmas that bind in the three pairs of Sthira etc. mentioned earlier, including the four varieties of Paryapta Dwīndriya, Trīndriya, Chaturindriya, and Panchendriya. And in the places including the Tiryanch and Manushya gatis, there are 6 places, 6 Sanhanan, and 7 pairs of types of karmas from Sthira to Vihayogati, resulting in 4608+4608=9216 bhangas. Thus, there are 9296 bhangas for the 29 types of karmas that bind, including the 32 bhangas mentioned earlier.
* In the 30 types of karmas that bind, there are 8 bhangas each for the types of karmas that bind in the three pairs of Sthira, Shubha, and Yashaskirti, including the combined varieties of Paryapta Dwīndriya, Trīndriya, Chaturindriya, and Panchendriya, with Udyot. Therefore, there are 8x4=32 bhangas. And in the one place including the Sanjnī Tiryanch with Udyot, there are 6 Sanhanan, 6 Santhan, and 7 pairs of types of karmas from Sthira to Vihayogati, resulting in 4608 bhangas. Thus, there are 32+4608=4640 bhangas for the 30 types of karmas that bind.
These bhangas are related to the Mithyatva Guna Sthana. Now, the Bhujakara etc. bindings related to the above bhangas are called according to the different times:
