Gommatasara Karmakanda - 61
In the first hell-related state of non-perfection, there are 99 natures that are capable of binding, similar to the mixed-body yogi, without human and animal life, because there is no binding of life in the mixed-body yoga of the Vaikriya. Here, the only two Gunasthanas are Mithyatva and Asanyata, because there is no Sasadan Gunasthana in the state of non-perfection of the hell-being. Here, in the Mithyatva Gunasthana, there are four natures, including Mithyatva, and in the Sasadan Gunasthana, there are 24 natures that are cut off, making a total of 28 natures that are cut off. Binding is of 98 natures without the Tirthankara, and non-binding is of one nature. In the Asanyata Gunasthana, there is a cut-off of 9 natures mentioned in the Gunasthana, without human life, binding is of 71 natures with the Tirthankara, and non-binding is of 28 natures.
In the first hell-related state of non-perfection, the binding-non-binding-binding cut-off is to be understood as follows: In the first hell-related state of non-perfection, there are 99 natures that are capable of binding. There are two Gunasthanas.
**Details**
| Gunasthana | Binding | Non-Binding |
|---|---|---|
| Mithyatva | 98 | 1 (Tirthankara) 28 (4 Mithyatva and 24 Sasadan Gunasthana) |
| Asanyata | 71 | 28 (29-1 Tirthankara) 9 (previously mentioned) |
Starting from the lineage, in the state of non-perfection of the five earths, there are 98 natures that are capable of binding, and only one Gunasthana, Mithyatva, is found. (There is no binding of the Tirthankara nature in the Mithyatva Gunasthana). In the last earth, called Maaghavi, there are also 95 natures that are capable of binding in the state of non-perfection, and one Mithyatva Gunasthana, because here, in the Mithyatva Gunasthana, there is no binding of the high lineage and the human couple. (Verse 107) Further, the binding cut-off, binding-non-binding, related to the animal realm is stated:
```
तिरिये ओघो तित्थाहारूणो अविरिदे छिदी चउरो ।
उवरिम छण्हं च छिदी सासणसम्मे हवे णियमा ॥ १०८ ॥
```
**Meaning:** In the animal realm, binding-non-binding-binding cut-off is to be understood as in the Gunasthana, but the special feature is that here, there is no binding of the Tirthankara and the food-giver couple, therefore, there are 117 natures that are capable of binding, and in the Asanyata Gunasthana, there is a cut-off of only four Kashayas in the form of non-rejection. The cut-off of the remaining six natures, Vajrarṣabha, Naraacha, etc., takes place in the Sasadan Gunasthana, because in the mixed and Asanyata Gunasthana of the animal realm, there is no binding of the natures related to the animal and human realms.
