## Shataka
This is a summary of the 35 types of Bandha and Upak (sub-species) and how they manifest in the Meghas.
Except for Mithyatva, the remaining Uday (arising) natures have two types of Bhang (destruction): Anadi-Anant (beginningless-infinite) and Anadi-Sant (beginningless-finite). Mithyatva has three types of Bhang: Anadi-Anant, Anadi-Sant, and Maadi-Sant (beginning-finite).
Dhruva-Bandhini (fixed-binding) natures have three types of Bhang: Anadi-Anant, Anadi-Sant, and Saadi-Sant (beginning-finite). Adhruva-Bandha (unfixed-binding) and Uday natures have only one type of Bhang: Saadi-Sant.
These Bhangs arise due to the Pariṇāmik (consequential) state of the Bhavy (blessed) and Abhavy (unblessed) souls. The author has already indicated the Bhangs that occur in the natures in the form of a Sutra (aphorism) in verse 5:
**Padmabia Dhūvajavasu Dhavajandisū Taiyavaj Bhangalingam | Micchammī Tigni Bhangā Dahavi Adhuvā Turis Bhangā ||**
This means: Padmabia (lotus-like), Dhūvajavasu (flag-like), Dhavajandisū (flag-like), Taiyavaj (sun-like) have one Bhang. Mithyatva has three Bhangs. Adhuvā (unfixed) has four Bhangs.
After explaining the Dhruva-Adhruva Bandha, Uday natures, their names, and the number of Bhangs that occur in them along with their causes, the author now lists the Dhruva and Adhruva Satya (truth) natures in two verses:
**Tamabannavīs Sagateya-Kamma Ghūyabandhi Ses Vetigam | Āmitim Veṇiyam Bujuyal Sagaural Sāsachaū || 8 ||**
**Khagaitirim Nīyam Dhūvasantā Sammā Mos Manuyadugam | Vivikkār Aṇāū Hārasaguccha Adhuvasantā || 9 ||**
**Meaning:**
* **Verse 8:** Twenty-three (Tamabannavīs) natures, including Sagateya-Kamma (action-based), Ghūyabandhi (binding), Ses (remaining), Vetigam (three Vedas), Āgitirigam (three forms), and six others.
* **Verse 9:** Khagaitirim (sky-like), Nīyam (ethical), Dhūvasantā (fixed-truth), Sammā (right), Mos (liberation), Manuyadugam (human-like), Vivikkār (differentiation), Aṇāū (non-existent), Hārasaguccha (chain of bondage), Adhuvasantā (unfixed-truth).
