## Chapter 21
After explaining the six types of karma-grantha bhangas, we now discuss the components of the binding and other locations of Darshanavaran, Vedaniya, Ayu and Gotra karmas.
**Verse 35:**
**General Meaning:** In the thirteen locations of the soul, there are nine types of natural binding, four or five types of natural arising, and nine types of natural existence. In one location of the soul, there are eleven types of bhangas. In Vedaniya, Ayu and Gotra karmas, we will discuss the different types of Mohaniya karma.
**Specific Meaning:** The verse indicates that we will first discuss the binding and other locations of Darshanavaran, Vedaniya, Ayu and Gotra karmas, and then later discuss the different types of Mohaniya karma.
The binding and other locations of Darshanavaran karma are as follows: In the initial thirteen locations of the soul, there are nine types of natural binding, four or five types of natural arising, and nine types of natural existence. These constitute two types of bhangas. That is, nine types of natural binding, four types of natural arising, and nine types of natural existence constitute one type of bhangas, and nine types of natural binding, five types of natural arising, and nine types of natural existence constitute the second type of bhangas. Thus, there are two types of bhangas in the initial thirteen locations of the soul. The reason for this is that in the initial thirteen locations of the soul, there is neither a breaking of the binding nor a breaking of the arising of any of the subsequent natures of Darshanavaran karma.
