The seven categories of *tikā* are the *jīva*. There are three types of *bandha-sthāna* in terms of time: *anādi-ananta*, *anādi-sānta*, and *sādi-sānta*. Of these, the *anādi-ananta* option is with respect to *abhavya*s, because their twenty-two natural *bandha-sthāna* are never absent. The *anādi-sānta* option is with respect to *bhakshya*s, because in due course, the cessation of their twenty-two natural *bandha-sthāna* is certain. Or, those who have deviated from *samyaktva* due to *anyatva* and have attained *mithyātva*, and who in due course attain *samyaktva* again, have the *sādi-sānta* option. Because this option is *kāda-cittka*, therefore, it has a beginning and an end. With respect to this *sādi-sānta* option, the minimum time for the twenty-two natural *bandha-sthāna* is *antar-muhūrta* and the maximum time is *deśon-apādham-pudgala-parāvṛtta* measure.
The *jīva* residing in the *sāsādana* *guṇa-sthāna* is the owner of the twenty-one natural *bandha-sthāna*. The minimum time for the *sāsādana* *guṇa-sthāna* is one *samaya* and the maximum time is six *āvala*s. Therefore, the time measure for this *bandha-sthāna* should also be understood as stated. The *jīva* residing in the third and fourth *guṇa-sthāna*s are the owners of the seventeen natural *bandha-sthāna*. The minimum time for this *sthāna* is *antar-muhūrta* and the maximum time is *sādhika-te-tīs-sāgara*. The *jīva* residing in the *deśa-virata* *guṇa-sthāna* is the owner of the thirteen natural *bandha-sthāna*. The minimum time for the *deśa-virata* *guṇa-sthāna* is *antar-muhūrta* and the maximum time is *deśon-pūrva-koṭi-varṣa* measure. Therefore, the minimum and maximum time for the thirteen natural *bandha-sthāna* should be understood as such. The nine natural *bandha-sthāna* are found in the sixth, seventh, and eighth *guṇa-sthāna*s. The minimum time for this *bandha-sthāna* is *antar-muhūrta* and the maximum time is *deśon-pūrva-koṭi-varṣa* measure. Although the maximum time for the sixth, seventh, and eighth *guṇa-sthāna*s is not more than *antar-muhūrta*, yet the change is less than the sixth and...
