## The Fifth Karma Granth
This text discusses the three types of "bhang" (divisions) within "mithyatva" (false belief) and the fourth "bhang" found in both types of "adhruva" (non-permanent) natures.
Previously, the four "bhangs" - "anadi-ananta" (beginningless-endless), "anadi-santa" (beginningless-limited), "sadi-ananta" (beginningful-endless), and "sadi-santa" (beginningful-limited) - were only mentioned by name. Here, we clarify which "bhang" applies to "dhruvabandi" (permanent) and other natures.
These "bhangs" occur in "dhruva" (permanent), "adhruva" (non-permanent) "bandha" (bondage), and "udaya" (arising) natures. The names of "dhruvabandi" and "adhruvabandi" natures have already been mentioned, and the names of "dhruvodayi" (permanent arising) and "adhruvodayi" (non-permanent arising) natures will be explained in the following verses. However, for the sake of brevity and to avoid repetition, we will mention the "bhangs" occurring in both "bandha" and "udaya" natures together.
Firstly, the verse "padhamavia dhruvudaimu pad" states that the first "bhang" in "dhruvodayi" natures is "anadi-ananta" and the second is "anadi-santa." This is because "abhavya" (non-liberated beings) never experience the arising of "dhruvodayi" natures. Therefore, the first "bhang" is considered "anadi-ananta." "Bhavya" (liberated beings) experience arising from the beginningless, but their arising ceases in the twelfth or thirteenth "gunasthan" (stages of spiritual progress). This is why the second "bhang" in "dhruvodayi" natures is considered "anadi-santa."
We have explained the first and second "bhangs" in "dhruvodayi" natures. However, "mithyatva" (false belief), being a characteristic of "mohaniya karma" (delusion-causing karma), has three "bhangs" - "anadi-ananta," "anadi-santa," and "sadi-santa." These "bhangs" occur as follows: "abhavya" experience the arising of "mithyatva" from the beginningless, and it never ceases. Therefore, it is considered "anadi-ananta."
