### Bond-Ownership of Aharak and Aharak-Mishra Kayayog
According to the Karmagrantha, the bond-ownership of Aharak and Aharak-Mishra Kayayog is like the sixth Prammatta-Samyata Gunasthan, which has 63 Prakruti, as mentioned in the general context and in relation to the Gunasthan.
However, the Pancha-Sangraha Sapta-Tika states that Aharak Kayayog has two Gunasthan, the sixth and the seventh, while Aharak-Mishra Kayayog has only the sixth Gunasthan. Therefore, the bond of Aharak Kayayog should be considered as 63 Prakruti in the sixth Gunasthan, 57 in the seventh Gunasthan, and 66 if there is no bond of Devayu.
The basis for this statement is that the seventh Gunasthan is the bond-worthy Gunasthan for the Aharak body, while the sixth is the Ud-yogya (suitable for effort). When the fourteen Purva-dhari perform Aharak body, they experience the sixth Gunasthan due to the involvement of Pramada (negligence) in utilizing the Labdhi (gain). At the beginning of the Aharak body, it is mixed with Bodarik (materiality), meaning that the sixth Gunasthan exists in both Aharak and Aharak-Mishra Kayayog. However, later, due to the power of Vishuddhi (purification), it reaches the seventh Gunasthan, where only Aharak Yog remains, and the Gunasthan is the seventh.
Therefore, it is appropriate to consider the sixth and seventh Gunasthan for Aharak Kayayog and the sixth Gunasthan for Aharak-Mishra Kayayog. Consequently, all Aharak Kayayog would have 63 and 17 Prakruti, while Aharak-Mishra Kayayog would have 63 Prakruti.
In the Gommatasar Karmakanda, 63 Prakruti are considered bond-worthy for Aharak-Mishra Kayayog, and 62 Prakruti are considered bond-worthy for Aharak Kayayog, considering the bond of Devayu. The reason for considering the bond of Devayu is the rule that Ayus (life span) does not bind in the mixed state.
