## Karmagrantha, Part, Appendix "F", Page 206, Line 14, "Mal Mab"
This verse, like the one in the Pancha-Sangraha, lists the number of one-soul-dependent states in the Gunasthanas. However, there is a slight difference in the explanation between the commentary and the Tika-Tava of this verse and the commentary of the corresponding verse in the Pancha-Sangraha.
The Tika-Tava uses the terms "Upshamka" and "Jekanss" to include the ninth, tenth, and eleventh Gunasthanas, and the term "Apuurva" to include only the eighth Gunasthan. In the ninth Gunasthan, the "Upshamka" is considered to be the "Palambaka" or the "Savyaktvi" or the "Kshayikambhyavtvi". In the eighth Gunasthan, the "Upshamka" or "Kshayik" is not considered to be the "Samyaktyamale" but the "Kshayopshamaka". This is evident from the separate use of the term "Apuurva" in the verse. If the eighth Gunasthan also had the "Upshamka" as the "Charitra", then the term "Apuurva" would not have been used separately, and the eighth Gunasthan would have been included with the ninth and subsequent Gunasthanas using the term "Upshamka". The Tika-Tava does not mention the "Charitra" or the "Mab" related to the "Apakni-gat-jeeva" in the ninth and tenth Gunasthanas.
The commentary of the Pancha-Sangraha, by Shri Malgirin, uses the terms "Upshamka" and "Upshanta" to include the eighth to eleventh Gunasthanas, which are the "Upsham" श्रेणी, and the terms "Apuurva" and "Shreen" to include the eighth, ninth, tenth, and twelfth Gunasthanas, which are the "Kshapaka" श्रेणी. He considers the "Upshamka" as the "Charitra" in the aforementioned four Gunasthanas, but does not mention anything about the "Charitra" in the four Gunasthanas of the "Kshapaka" श्रेणी. In the eleventh Gunasthan, there is only the "Upshamka" "Charitra" because all the "Mohaniya" are completely "Upsham". In the ninth and tenth Gunasthanas, there are two "Charitras", "Upshamka" and "Kshayopshamaka", because some of the "Charitra-Mohaniya" are "Upshanta" in these two Gunasthanas, but not all. Compared to the "Upshanta" nature, the "Upshamka" ...
