## Chapter 77
**Word Meaning:**
* **Anusu:** Eight *jīva-sthāna* (life-states) in five *jīva-sthāna*, one *jīva-sthāna*, one, two, *dal-das* and *moh-bandh* - in the places bound by *mohniya* karma, three times and nine, *udaya* - places of *udaya* (arising), *ling* three, fifteen - places of *samī-satā* (being).
**Meaning of the Verse:**
In eight, five and one *jīva-sthāna*, there are one, two and ten *bandha-sthāna* (places of bondage) respectively, due to the sequence of *mohniya* karma. There are three, four and nine *udaya-sthāna* (places of arising) and three, three and fifteen *satā-sthāna* (places of being).
**Special Meaning:**
This verse explains the *bandha*, *udaya* and *satā* places in the *jīva-sthāna* bound by *mohniya* karma. It also indicates the number of *jīva-sthāna*, *bandha-sthāna*, *udaya-sthāna* and *satā-sthāna*, i.e., how many *bandha-sthāna* are there in how many *jīva-sthāna*, how many *udaya-sthāna* are there, and how many *satā-sthāna* are there. However, it does not specify which ones they are. Therefore, its explanation is given below.
There are one, two and ten *bandha-sthāna* in eight, five and one *jīva-sthāna* respectively. This means that there is one *bandha-sthāna* in eight *jīva-sthāna*, two *bandha-sthāna* in five *jīva-sthāna* and ten *bandha-sthāna* in one *jīva-sthāna*. Of these, the fact that there is one *bandha-sthāna* in the first eight *jīva-sthāna* is explained as follows:
* *Paryāpta-sukshma-ekendriya* (sufficiently subtle one-sensed), *aparyāpta-sukshma-ekendriya* (insufficiently subtle one-sensed), *aparyāpta-bādar-ekendriya* (insufficiently coarse one-sensed), *aparyāpta-dvīndriya* (insufficiently two-sensed), *aparyāpta-trīndriya* (insufficiently three-sensed), *aparyāpta-chaturindriya* (insufficiently four-sensed), *aparyāpta-asanjñī-panchendriya* (insufficiently non-conscious five-sensed) and *aparyāpta-sanjñī-panchendriya* (insufficiently conscious five-sensed) - these eight *jīva-sthāna* have the first *mithyā-dṛṣṭi* (false belief) *guṇa-sthāna* (quality-state). Therefore, they have twenty-two *prakṛti* (natural) *bandha-sthāna*. These twenty-two *prakṛti* are as follows: *mithyātv* (false belief), *ananta-anubandhī-kaṣāya-chatuṣka* (four *kaṣāya* (passions) that are not bound by *anubandha* (attachment)), etc., sixteen *kaṣāya*, one of the three *veda* (scripture), *hāsa-rati* (joy of laughter) and *śoka-arati* (sorrow of desire) - one of each pair.
