When there is an abundance of atoms, there is an increase in the number of atoms, and when there is a deficiency in the amount of tendency, there is a decrease in the number of atoms, and the binding of this group of assumed pudgala atoms with the soul through karma is called dvyakarma. There are four types of bonds:
These symbols are classified into four categories: prakritibandha, pradeshabandha, anubhagabandha, and sthitivedha.
From the four categories of yoga, shrir, kshaya, and parigati, prakritibandha and pradeshabandha are from yoga, and anubhagabandha and sthitibandha are from kshaya. In the absence of kshaya, karma cannot remain associated with the soul. Just as dust does not stick well to dry clothes and falls off upon touching, similarly, when there is no kshaya in the soul, even subtle atoms do not become associated and fall off upon touching.
The pulsating activity of the yogas of mind, speech, and body occurs every moment, but if they do not receive the support of kshayas, they cannot become active yogas for karmabandha. Therefore, the weak karmabandha that occurs from the necessary actions of walking, etc., that occur diligently is called 'asaparayika bandha', and the tendency of yoga that occurs due to kshayas is called 'saaparayika bandha'. Asaparayika bandha is not the cause of bhavanashaga, and it is through saaparayika bandha that the being wanders in the world.
**Discussion of Prakritibandha**
In the karma atoms associated with the soul, powers (sthabhatra) arise that cover the qualities of the soul, such as knowledge, etc.; this is called prakritibandha. The soul has infinite qualities. Therefore, the nature of the karmas that cover them will also be considered infinite, but all of them are summarized in the following eight karmas:
