## The Fifth Karma Granth
**Verse Meaning:**
The Ekendriya (one-sensed) jati, Sthavar (stationary) and Atap (heat) karmas are bound by the Mithyadrishti Devas (false-believing gods) in their **utkrusht anubhag bandh** (superior section binding). The Vikalendriya (impaired-sensed) trik, Sukshma (subtle) trik, Narak (hell) trik, Tiryanch (animal) ayu (life) and Manusya (human) ayu are bound by the Mithyadrishti Tiryanch and Manusya in their **utkrusht anubhag bandh**. The Tiryach (animal) dwik (two) and Sewart (service) Sanhanan (accumulation) are bound by the Mithyadrishti Devas and Narakas in their **utkrusht anubhag bandh**.
**Commentary:**
There are two types of **anubhag bandh**: **utkrusht** (superior) and **jghanya** (inferior). This verse begins by explaining the nature of **anubhag bandh** and then describes the beings who experience **utkrusht anubhag bandh**. All beings in the four gatis (states of existence) create the power to experience the fruits of their karmas according to their **kapayik parinati** (individual destiny) along with their karma bandh.
This verse explains which beings in which gatis and gunasthans (levels of purity) experience **utkrusht anubhag bandh**. It states that "the Ekendriya jati, Sthavar and Atap, these three karmas are bound by the Mithyadrishti Devas in their **utkrusht anubhag bandh**." The reason why Mithyadrishti Devas experience **utkrusht anubhag bandh** of these three karmas is because Narakas (hell beings) do not take birth in the Ekendriya paryay (one-sensed state) after death, so they do not experience this bandh. And for the **utkrusht anubhag bandh** of the Atap karma, the level of purity required is such that humans and animals, if they achieve that level of purity, would be eligible to take birth in the Panchendriya (five-sensed) Tiryanch (animal) state and would experience the bandh of other auspicious karmas.
**Note:**
* The Devas mentioned here are those from the Ishaan heaven to the highest heaven. This is because only these Devas can take birth in the Ekendriya paryay after death. Devas above this level do not experience the Ekendriya paryay.
