## The Fifth Karma Granth
## 249
The क्षपक (Kshapaka) who resides in the tenth गुणस्थान (Gunasthan) performs it at the culmination of that गुणस्थान. Because among their binders, this is the most pure.
The मनुष्य (Manushya) and तिर्यंच (Tiryanch) are the masters of the inferior portion of these sixteen प्रकृति (Prakriti) - मूक्ष्मत्रिक (Mookshmatik), विकलत्रिक (Vikalatrik), four आयु (Ayu), and वैक्रियषटक (Vaikriyashatak) (which includes बक्रिय शरीर (Bakriya Sharira), त्रैकिय अंगोपांग (Traikiya Angopang), देवगति (Devagati), देवानुपूर्वी (Devanupurvi), नरकगति (Narakagati), and नरकानुपूर्वी (Narakanupurvi)). Out of these sixteen प्रकृति, they do not bind fourteen of them from birth as देव (Dev) or नारक (Narak). The inferior portion of मनुष्यायु (Manushyayu) and तिर्यंचायु (Tiryancyayu) is bound along with the inferior स्थितिबंध (Sthitibandh). Because these two are प्रशस्त प्रकृति (Prashasht Prakriti), their inferior portion is bound by संक्लेश परिणाम (Sanklesh Parinam) but the inferior स्थितिबंध is also bound by संक्लेश परिणाम.
The देव and नारक do not take birth as मनुष्य and तिर्यंच with inferior स्थिति, therefore they do not bind their inferior portion. In other words, the one who binds the inferior स्थितिबंध of these two प्रकृति, also binds their inferior अनुभागबंध (Anubhagbandh). Therefore, the मनुष्य and तिर्यंच are said to be the masters of the inferior अनुभागबंध of these sixteen प्रकृति, including मूक्ष्मत्रिक etc.
The देव and नारक bind the inferior अनुभागबंध of these three प्रकृति - उद्योत (Udyot), औदारिकट्टिक (Audarikatik). It is important to understand that the inferior अनुभागबंध of औदारिक अंगोपांग (Audarik Angopang) is bound by the वैमानिक देव (Vaimanik Dev) who reside above ईशान स्वर्ग (Ishan Swarg). Because the देव who reside up to ईशान स्वर्ग bind the एकेन्द्रिययोग्य (Ekendriyogy) प्रकृति due to उत्कृष्ट संक्लेश (Utkrisht Sanklesh), and एकेन्द्रिय (Ekendriya) do not have अंगोपांग. Therefore, the देव who reside up to ईशान स्वर्ग do not bind the inferior अनुभागबंध of औदारिक अंगोपांग नामकर्म (Audarik Angopang Namakarma).
The मनुष्य and तिर्यंच bind the inferior अनुभागबंध of the aforementioned three प्रकृति...
