## Karmagrantha Part Four
**181** In this place, the cause of the bondage of Tirthankara-nama karma is only Samyak-tva, and the cause of the bondage of Aharak-dvik is only Samyama, which is intended. Therefore, these three natures are not counted among the Kashaya-hesauk natures. ||53||
**General and Specific Description of Uttar Bandha-Hetus in Gunasthanas**
[From five verses] Pan-panna pan tiyachhi-achatt gan-chatt ch-chaud-gavi-sa. Sollas bas nav nav sa,-tt he-uno na u ajogimi. ||54||
**1.** In the 16th verse of the 4th door of Panchasangrah-dwar, "Sesa u phasae-ti." From this verse, Tirthankara-nama karma and Aharak-dvik, these three natures are considered Kashaya-hetuk, and in the 20th Maya of Agaji, Samyav is said to be the special Hetu of Tirthankara-nama karma and Samyama is said to be the special Hetu of Aharak-dvik. In the Sarvarthasiddhi of the 1st Sutra of Tatvartha-A. also, these three natures are considered Kashaya-hetuk. But Shri Devendrasuri has not called the bondage of these three natures Kashaya-hetuk. His intention seems to be only to show the special Hetu, not the prohibition of Kashaya, because the causality of Yoga in the nature and Pradesh-bandha of all karma, and the causality of Kashaya in the state and Anubhag-bandha is established beyond doubt. Special consideration of this is worth seeing in the Thimlayagiri-tika of the 2nd verse of Panchasangrah-dwar.
**2.** This topic is in the 5th verse of the 4th door of Panchasangrah-dwar, and in the 786th and 760th verses of Gommatsar Karmakanda.
**Uttar Bandha Hetu** has two divisions: general and specific. The Bandha-Hetu found simultaneously in all beings present in a particular Gunasthana is called 'general', and the Bandha-Hetu found simultaneously in one being is called 'specific'. In the 77th verse of the ancient fourth Karmagrantha, and in this place, there is a description of the general Uttar Bandha-Hetu. But in Panchasangrah and Gommatsar, there is a description of both types of Bandha-Hetus: general and specific. In the tika of Panchasangrah, this difference is explained very clearly. The description of the specific Uttar Bandha-Hetu is very detailed and profound.
