The subsidence and destruction of the kṣayās occur from the eleventh to the thirteenth guṇasthānas, which results in the binding of nature and region in those guṇasthānas. And in the fourteenth ayogikevalī guṇasthāna, due to the absence of yoga, there is complete cessation of karma forever. The binding of nature and region that occurs from the eleventh guṇasthāna onwards takes place in one time period and is destroyed in another. This happens due to the power of yoga, but since there is no gāy parivāma, it does not bear its fruit.
The measure of the earlier yogasthānas is said to be an innumerable part of the śroṇi. Therefore, after stating the causes of binding, we now explain the nature of the śroṇi.
"Chaus rajjū logo buddhikao satrajjūmaṇaghaṇo. Tahogapaesa seḍhi payaro ya tathago." ||67||
Word meaning - Chaus rajjū - fourteen rajjū measure, logo - loka, buddhikao - done by mental calculation, satrajjūmaṇaghaṇo - seven rajjū measure, tad - its (of the dense loka), dohegapaesa - long, one pradeśa's seḍhi śreṇi, payaro - pratar, ya - and then its square.
Śataka
Gāthārtha - The loka is fourteen rajjū measure, when it is equated by mental calculation, it becomes seven rajjū measure in volume. The śreṇi is the line of pradeśas that are as long as the dense loka, and its square should be understood as the pratar.
Viśeṣārtha - This gāthā explains the nature of the loka, śreṇi, and pratar. The gāthā only mentions "Chaus rajjū logo" while indicating the nature of the loka, which means that the loka is fourteen rajjūs.
