## Sixth Karma Granth
### 2.1
There are 7 **satta-sthana** (states of existence) in the emergence of 21 **prakritis** (principles), 5 in the emergence of 24 **prakritis**, 7 in the emergence of 25 **prakritis**, 5 in the emergence of 26 **prakritis**, 6 in the emergence of 27 **prakritis**, 6 in the emergence of 28 **prakritis**, 6 in the emergence of 29 **prakritis**, 6 in the emergence of 30 **prakritis**, and 4 in the emergence of 37 **prakritis**. The total number of **satta-sthana** is 7+5+7+5+6+6+6+6+4 = 52.
Now, let's consider the **udaya-sthana** (state of emergence) and **satta-sthana** in the 31 **prakriti** **bandha-sthana** (state of bondage). In the 31 **prakriti** **bandha-sthana**, there is one **udaya-sthana** and one **satta-sthana** - '**ege-gme-gati-se**'. The **udaya-sthana** is 30 **prakritis** and the **satta-sthana** is 63 **prakritis**. It should be understood that the bondage of 31 **prakritis**, including **tirthankara** and **aahara** (those who are eligible for **devagati** - the path of gods), occurs in two **guna-sthana** (states of qualities) - **aprammatta-samyata** (unwavering restraint) and **apuurva-karan** (unprecedented cause). However, neither **vikriya** (transformation) nor **aahara** **samudghata** (destruction of the **aahara** principle) occurs in these. Therefore, instead of 25 **prakritis** etc. being the **udaya-sthana**, there is only one **udaya-sthana** of 30 **prakritis**. Since the bondage of **aahara** and **tirthankara** **prakritis** occurs here, there is only one **satta-sthana** of 63 **prakritis**. Thus, in the 31 **prakriti** **bandha-sthana**, 30 **prakritis** are considered as **udaya-sthana** and 63 **prakritis** as **satta-sthana**.
Now, let's consider the **udaya-sthana** and **satta-sthana** in the one **prakriti** **bandha-sthana**. The **gatha** (verse) provides a clue to the number of **udaya-sthana** and **satta-sthana** in the one **prakriti** **bandha-sthana**: "**Ege Agu-daya Attha-santammi**" - meaning, there is one **udaya-sthana** and eight **satta-sthana**. The **udaya-sthana** is 30 **prakritis**, and the eight **satta-sthana** are 63, 62, 86, 88, 80, 76, 76, and 75 **prakritis**. Their explanation is as follows: In the one **prakriti** **bandha-sthana**, there is a bondage of one **yasha-kirti** **prakriti** (principle of fame and glory).
