**Karmastada**
In the previous verse, the existence of karma-types was explained in relation to the Upashama category. Now, in this verse, the existence of karma-types is explained in relation to the Kshapaka category.
**10**
Those beings who are destined to turn towards the Kshapaka category in their present life and are Charamasheeri (those who will attain liberation in this very life), i.e., those who are currently either Aupashmika or Kshayopa-shmika Samyaktvi, but are destined to turn towards the Kshapaka category and attain liberation in this very life, they only have the existence of the Manushya-ayu (human lifespan). The existence of the other three Ayus (lifespans) is not there, nor is their possibility. Therefore, in relation to such Kshapaka beings, from the fourth to the seventh Gunasthan (spiritual stages), there are 145 karma-types that exist out of the 148 karma-types that are capable of existing, as the Naraka-ayu (hellish lifespan), Tiyancha-ayu (heavenly lifespan), and Deva-ayu (divine lifespan) are not possible for them.
However, those beings who have attained Kshayika Samyaktva (complete liberation) by destroying the Ananta-anubandhi-chatushk (four infinite karmas) and Darshan-moha-trik (three karmas related to perception and delusion), and who will not have another birth after this one, such beings, from the fourth Gunasthan onwards, become Kshayika Samyaktvi and turn towards the Kshapaka category. In relation to such beings, due to the destruction of the Ananta-anubandhi-chatushk and Darshan-moha-trik, which are seven karma-types, and the non-existence of the remaining three Ayus except the present Manushya-ayu, 138 karma-types are considered to exist out of the 148 karma-types that are capable of existing. This existence of 138 karma-types should be understood from the fourth Gunasthan to the first part of the ninth Gunasthan.
But those beings who cannot turn towards the Kshapaka category in their present life, i.e., those who are Acharamasheeri (those who will not attain liberation in this life), among them, some are Kshayika Samyaktvi, some are Aupashmika Samyaktvi, and some are Kshayopa-shmika Samyaktvi.
