## Karmagrantha Part Four
**Chapter 68**
There are four types of *saannipaatika* (simultaneous) *bhaava* (states) in the four *gati* (states of existence) due to the mixed results of *kshaayika* (destructive), *parinaamika* (transformative), and *praudaabika* (materialistic) *bhaava*. These four *bhaava* are found in the *gati* due to the tri-combination of the aforementioned three *bhaava* and one *shaabika* (corporeal) *bhaava*. Similarly, the tri-combination of the aforementioned three *bhaava* and one *aupashamika* (pacifying) *bhaava* results in another type of *saannipaatika* *bhaava*. Therefore, there are two types of *saannipaatika* *bhaava*, each with four variations.
The *saannipaatika* *bhaava* resulting from the tri-combination of *kshaayika*, *parinaamika*, and *praudaabika* *bhaava* is found only in *kevali* (omniscient) beings with physical bodies. The *saannipaatika* *bhaava* resulting from the dual combination of *jnaayika* (knowledge-based) and *parinaamika* *bhaava* is found only in *siddha* (liberated) beings. The *saannipaatika* *bhaava* resulting from the combination of all five *bhaava* is found only in humans who are in the *upabhramshreni* (state of delusion).
Therefore, there are fifteen variations of the six *saannipaatika* *bhaava*. The remaining twenty *saannipaatika* *bhaava* are *sanbhavi* (non-existent).
**Explanation**
*Saannipaatika* *bhaava* arises when two, three, four, or five of the five *bhaava* (kshaayika, kshaayopashamika, aupashamika, parinaamika, and praudaabika) combine. The *saannipaatika* *bhaava* resulting from the combination of two *bhaava* is called *dvik-sannyoga* (dual combination), the combination of three *bhaava* is called *trik-sannyoga* (triple combination), the combination of four *bhaava* is called *chatussannyoga* (quadruple combination), and the combination of five *bhaava* is called *panch-sannyoga* (quintuple combination).
There are ten variations of *dvik-sannyoga*:
1. *aupashamika* + *kshaayika*
2. *aupashamika* + *kshaayopashamika*
... and so on.
