## The Karma Granth (Chapter 237)
Each of the eight bhangas (categories of karma) contains the five sattvasthana (states of being), but each of the remaining 21 bhangas contains only four sattvasthana, excluding the 78 natural sattvasthana.
Now, following the instructions given in the gatha (verse), we will explain the bandha (bondage) and other states, and their respective bhangas, for the vikalendriya (limited sensory) beings. The gatha instructs: "Pan panagam vigalindiya u tini u". This means that the vikalendriya beings - the dwindriya (two-sensed), trindriya (three-sensed), and chaturindriya (four-sensed) - have five bandha sthana (places of bondage), six udaya sthana (places of arising), and five sattva sthana.
Here is the explanation:
Vikalendriya beings also experience bondage of the same natural qualities that lead to the tiryanch (animal) and manushya (human) realms. Therefore, they also have five bandha sthana: 23, 25, 26, 26, and 30 natural qualities. Accordingly, they have a total of 13917 bhangas.
Considering the udaya sthana, there are six: 21, 26, 28, 26, 30, and 31 natural qualities. The 21 natural udaya sthana include: tejas (fire), karman (karma), agurulghu (heavy-light), sthira (stable), asthira (unstable), shubha (auspicious), ashubha (inauspicious), varn chatushk (four colors), nirman (creation), tiryanch gati (animal realm), tiryanch anupurvi (animal lineage), dwindriya jati (two-sensed species), sabadar (sound), paryapta (sufficient), durbhag (misfortune), anadeya (unworthy), and yasha kirti (fame) and ayasha kirti (infamy). These 21 qualities arise in the apantaral (intermediate) realm. There are two bhangas due to the alternative of yasha kirti and ayasha kirti.
Next, considering the jiva (soul) residing in the body, the 21 natural udaya sthana include: audarik sharir (physical body), audarik angopang (physical limbs), indrasansthan (sense organs), sevarta sanhanan (service-oriented aggregation), upghat (injury), and each of these six qualities combined, minus tiryanch anupurvi, resulting in 26 natural udaya sthana. Here too, like the 21 natural udaya sthana, there are two bhangas.
