## The Fifth Karma Granth
## 226
There are three sections of bondage: **Tivra**, **Tivratar**, **Tivratam**, and **Atyanta**. And there are four sections of bondage for the **Ashubha** (unfortunate) natures: **Mand**, **Mandatar**, **Mandatam**, and **Atyanta-Mand**.
Now, we will explain the causes of these four sections of bondage for the three **Mand** sections. The causes are: **Girimahir-Yajal-Reha-Saris-Kasahim** - meaning, the bondage is caused by the results of **Kashaya** (passions) that are like the line of a mountain, the line of the earth, the line of a flower, and the line of water, respectively. These results cause the **Atyanta-Tivra** (Chatur-Sthanik), **Tivratam** (Tristhanik), **Tivratar** (Dvisthanik), and **Tivra** (Ekasthanik) sections of bondage. This explanation is given with respect to the **Ashubha** natures. For the **Shubha** (fortunate) natures, the opposite should be understood. That is, the **Atyanta-Tivra** (Chatur-Sthanik) bondage is caused by the results like the line of water and dust, the **Tivratam** (Tristhanik) bondage is caused by the results like the line of the earth, and the **Tivratar** (Dvisthanik) bondage is caused by the results like the line of a mountain. There is no **Tivra** (Ekasthanik) bondage for the **Shubha** natures, which will be explained in detail later.
Previously, it was explained that the cause of **Anubhag Bandha** (sectional bondage) is **Kashaya**. The four sections of **Tivra**, **Tivratar**, etc. and **Mand**, **Mandatar**, etc. are all sections of **Anubhag Bandha**. The cause of these sections is the state of **Hetu Kashayik** (passion-related) results. There are four types of **Kashaya**: **Krodha** (anger), **Mana** (pride), **Maya** (deceit), and **Lobha** (greed). Each of these has four states. That is, there are four states of **Krodha Kashaya**. Similarly, there are four states of **Mana**, **Maya**, and **Lobha**. These states are called: **Ananta-Anubandhi Kashaya**, **Apratyakhyana-Avarana Kashaya**, **Pratyakhyana-Avarana Kashaya**, and **Sanjwalana Kashaya**. The **Shastrakaras** (scriptural scholars) have given four metaphors for these four **Kashaya**, which are indicated in the **Gapa**. **Ananta-Anubandhi Rushaya**...
