## Chapter 7: Seven Living States
There are two types of arising states within these seven living states: 21-natured and 24-natured. The 21-natured arising state is found in the **aparyapt** (inadequate) **badar** (gross) **ekendriya** (one-sensed) living state. It includes the following 21 natures: **tiryanch-gati** (transmigration), **tiryanch-anupurvi** (transmigratory lineage), **tejas** (fire element), **karman** (karma), **aguru-laghu** (heavy-light), **varna-chaturshka** (four colors), **ekendriya-jati** (one-sensed species), **sthavar** (stationary), **badar** (gross), **aparyapt** (inadequate), **sthira** (stable), **asthira** (unstable), **shubha** (auspicious), **ashubha** (inauspicious), **durbhag** (misfortune), **anadeya** (unworthy), **ayash-kirti** (bad reputation), and **nirman** (creation). This arising state is found in the **apantaral** (intermediate) motion. Here, there is one **bhang** (break) because the **paravartaman** (present) **shubha** (auspicious) natures do not arise.
The same applies to the **aparyapt** (inadequate) **sukshma** (subtle) **ekendriya** (one-sensed) living state. However, the difference is that in the **badar** (gross) state, the **sukshma** (subtle) nature should be considered to arise. Here too, there is one **bhang** (break).
In the 21-natured arising state, by adding the four natures of **oudarik-sharira** (spiritual body), **hund-sansthan** (body structure), **upghat** (injury), and one of **pratyek** (individual) or **sadharan** (common), and subtracting the **tiryanch-anupurvi** (transmigratory lineage) nature, we get the 24-natured arising state. This is possible in both the **sukshma** (subtle) and **badar** (gross) **ekendriya** (one-sensed) **aparyapt** (inadequate) living states. Here, there are two **bhang** (breaks) each for the **sadharan** (common) and **pratyek** (individual) **namakarma** (name-karma) in both the **sukshma** (subtle) **aparyapt** (inadequate) and **badar** (gross) **aparyapt** (inadequate) living states. Thus, there are three **bhang** (breaks) each in both living states, making a total of six **bhang** (breaks) for the two arising states.
The five living states of **vikaleindriya-trik** (three-sensed with impairment), **asanhi** (non-sentient) **aparyapt** (inadequate), and **sanjni** (sentient) **aparyapt** (inadequate) have two arising states: 21-natured and 26-natured. The 21-natured arising state in the **aparyapt** (inadequate) **dwindriya** (two-sensed) living state includes the following 21 natures: **tiryanch-gati** (transmigration), **tiryanch-anupurvi** (transmigratory lineage), **tejas** (fire element), **karman** (karma), **aguru-laghu** (heavy-light), **varna-chaturshka** (four colors), **dwindriya-jati** (two-sensed species), **bas** (dwelling), **badar** (gross), **aparyapt** (inadequate), **sthira** (stable), **asthira** (unstable), **shubha** (auspicious), **ashubha** (inauspicious), **durbhag** (misfortune), **anadeya** (unworthy), **ayash-kirti** (bad reputation), and **nirman** (creation). This arising state is found in the **apantaral** (intermediate) motion.
