According to the **Badhakamittva** doctrine, there are only four **Gunasthanas** (stages of spiritual progress). This statement of four **Gunasthanas** is according to the **Panchasangraha** and the ancient **Bandhaswamittva** doctrine. The relevant verses of **Panchasangraha** and ancient **Bandhaswamittva** are as follows:
**Panchasangraha 1-30:** "Chassmasu sikshin simuchchaehanga sukkha amogi alessa."
**Ancient Bandhaswamittva, verse 40:** The above views are also supported in **Gommatasar**.
Therefore, in the three **Leshyas** (types of souls) of **Krishna** etc., **Bandhaswamittva** also considers only four **Gunasthanas**. The intention of considering these three **Leshyas** in the first four **Gunasthanas** is that these **Leshyas**, being in the form of inauspicious results, cannot be found in the other **Gunasthanas**.
Out of the three **Leshyas** of **Tej** etc., **Tej** and **Pa** are auspicious, but their auspiciousness is much less than that of **Shukla Leshya**. Therefore, these two **Leshyas** are found up to the seventh **Gunasthanas**, and the nature of **Shukla Leshya** is so auspicious due to the mildness (purity) of its results that it can be found up to the thirteenth **Gunasthanas** (**Sak**).
The general **Bandhaswamittva** of these six **Leshyas** in comparison to the four **Gunasthanas** has been explained in verses 21 and 22. Therefore, one should understand it from there.
**Verse 691, Jiva Kanda:** "Thavarakayappahudu avirksha sammoti amuhti halessa. Sarani do apamalo av du sujhati pipalessaao."
**Meaning:** The first three inauspicious **Leshyas** are from **Thavarakaya** to the fourth **Gunasthanas**, and the last two auspicious **Leshyas** are from **Sanshi Mithyashti** to **Aparamatta**.
