## The Fifth Karma Granth
183
In the same way, the five-sense beings, with their complex and resultant nature, create a superior bond of these twenty-nine natures. After a very short time, they create an inferior bond, and later again a superior bond. Thus, due to their changing nature, these two bonds are also both Sadi and Adhruva. The remaining 73 natures are Adhruvabandhini, and due to their being Anuvabandhini, their four states of bond - Jghanya, Ajghanya, Utkrishta, and Anutkrishta - are all Sadi and Adhruva.
From the eighteen natures starting with Sanjwalan Chatushk, each has four options for its Ajghanya bond - Sadi, Adhruva, etc. And for the remaining three states of bond - Utkrishta bond, etc. - each has ten options for being Sadi and Adhruva, due to the ten options for the nature of restraint. This results in 180 options for the eighteen natures and 102 options for the remaining 102 natures. Each of the 102 natures has four states of bond - Utkrishta, etc. - and each of these four has two options - Sadi and Adhruva. This results in eight options for each of the 102 natures. In total, these options amount to 10,244,840,842,816.
The total options for the Uttar Natures are 10 + 16 = 6. Adding the 78 options for the Mula Natures, the total number of options for the states of bond is 1074.
**Naanant Rayadasan Chakkasanjasan Thii Ajhanna. Chauha Mai Adhrusha Sesa Iyarana Samvaao.**
- Panchasangrah Sha 60. This verse's commentary discusses the options for the states of bond of the Uttar Natures. Similarly, Mo. Karmakand Ma. 153 also mentions these options.
**Manjalan Suhumghos Ghinan Baduvidho Du Ajhanno. Sematiya Pun Duviha Sesanan Ghavi Dhaavi Dudha.**
