## Time as a Factor in the Path of Liberation:
In the Gommatasara Karmakanda, 70 and 71 prakritis are considered to be capable of binding in the fourth gunasthan. _The solution to this is that in verse 15, the term 'anajadisaai' should not only refer to the twenty-four prakritis like Ananannunandhi Chatushk, but also include the prakritis like 'Aai' (manushyatvika) by taking the word 'Aai' into account. This removes any doubt. In this case, 70 and 71 prakritis can be considered capable of binding in the fourth gunasthan._
Even after accepting this solution, the question arises as to why the Karmagrantha mentions the binding of 75 prakritis. This needs to be considered.
According to the principles of Audarikamishra Kayayoga, the fifth and sixth gunasthanas are considered. In this regard, the Sikhanta's opinion is that just as Audarik Kayayoga is called Audarik Mishra Kayayoga because it is mixed with Karman Kayayoga until the body of Audarik Kayayoga is fully developed, similarly, the Vaikriya and Aharak bodies should be considered Audarik Mishra Kayayoga until they are fully developed and mixed with the Audarik body in their initial stages.
The Sivanta's perspective is acceptable, and from that perspective, the fifth and sixth gunasthanas can be considered as Audarik Mishra Kayayoga. However, the Karmagrantha does not consider the Vaikriya and Aharak bodies as Audarik Mishra Kayayoga, giving priority to the Labdhiabhyudaya body. Only the yoga that arises from the cooperation of both Karman and Audarik bodies should be called Audarik Mishra Kayayoga, and this yoga is found in the first, second, fourth, and seventh gunasthanas.
Therefore, the binding of these four gunasthanas has been mentioned.
