## Appendix-3
The action, which is the subtle particle transformation, is not considered in the calculation. The arrangement should be understood here as it is. This is a description of the owners of the excellent and inferior regions, as found in the Gommatasara Karmakanda.
The Digambara literature also describes the owners of the region-bonds in the Karmakanda. This is generally similar to the description of the Karmagranthi. The relevant portion is presented here for use in comparative study.
This is the general rule regarding the owners of the excellent and inferior region-bonds: A being with sufficient restraint and who accumulates a lot of merit, including excellent people, makes an excellent region-bond. A being who is unconscious, has many natures, and makes an inferior region-bond, makes an inferior region-bond.
First, the ownership of the excellent bond of the primary natures is stated in the Gunasthanas:
**211. "The excellent region-bond of the Ayukarma is made by the one who resides in the seventh Gunasthana after the six Gunasthanas. The excellent region-bond of the Mohaniya is made by the one who resides in the ninth Gunasthana. And the excellent region-bond of the remaining six, except for the Aama and Mohaniya, is made by the being who resides in the tenth Gunasthana, the Sukhsamparaya, who is the holder of the excellent Yoga."**
Here, it should be understood that all the bonds are made by the excellent Yoga.
The ownership of the excellent region-bond of the secondary natures is as follows:
**212. "The excellent region-bond of the Sarva, Suhma, and Saraga is made by the one who resides in the fifth Patti of the Vesa. The excellent region-bond of the Ayaya and Vivitprakasaya is made by the one who resides in the Uktasadva. **
**213. "The excellent region-bond of the Chhannokasaya, Niddapaya, and Lalita is made by the one who resides in the Sammago. The excellent region-bond of the Sammo, Vamo, Tera, Parasura, and Aau is made by the one who resides in the Bhasava. **
**214. "The excellent region-bond of the Devacara, Makara, Samara, Sthama, and Manasu is made by the one who resides in the Sugati. The excellent region-bond of the Aahara, Appama, Sesapasu, and Bako is made by the one who resides in the Mindo."**
