**Chapter**
A human who does not bind the hell-existence before binding the Tirthankara nature is not born in hell after binding the Tirthankara nature. Therefore, the human who is taken into consideration is the one who binds the hell-existence before binding the Tirthankara nature. Some (like Samik, Samati, Jid Rajaṇit etc.) may die in the state of Samyaktva and go to hell, but due to pure results, those beings cannot bind the excellent state of Tirthankara nature. Therefore, in the case of the excellent state-binding of the Tirthankara nature, only the human who is constantly in the state of Samyaiṣṭi towards Mithyatva is taken into consideration.
The essence of the above statement in relation to the excellent state-binding of the Tirthankara nature is that although the binding of the Tirthankara nature can happen from the fourth to the eighth Gunasthanas, the excellent state-binding requires excellent Sanklesha, and the human who binds the Tirthankara nature can have excellent Sanklesha only when he is towards Mithyatva. Such a human is towards Mithyatva only when he has bound the hell-existence before binding the Tirthankara nature. When the bound-hell-existence human who is constantly in the state of Samyagdṛṣṭi is towards Mithyatva, at that very moment, his excellent state-binding of the Tirthankara nature happens. The one who goes to hell with Kṣayika Samyaktva is purer than him, therefore he is not taken into consideration here.
