## Sixth Karma Granth
245
There are five Bandha-sthana (bond-places) and each Bandha-sthana has six Udaya-sthana (arising-places) namely 21, 26, 28, 29, 30 and 31 Prakruti (nature). Out of these, the Udaya-sthana of 21 and 26 Prakruti have five Satya-sthana (being-places) each, while the remaining four Udaya-sthana have four Satya-sthana each, except for 78 Prakruti Satya-sthana. In total, there are 26 Satya-sthana. Thus, there are 130 Bhang (breakings) for five Bandha-sthana.
One should know the Bandha-sthana etc. of Tri-Indriya (three-sense) and Chatur-Indriya (four-sense) Paryapta (sufficient) like Dwi-Indriya (two-sense) Paryapta, and they also have 130, 130 Bhang.
In the Asanjni (non-conscious) Pancha-Indriya (five-sense) Paryapta Jiva-sthana (living being place), there are five Bandha-sthana namely 23, 25, 26, 26 and 30 Prakruti. Each Bandha-sthana has long Bhang like Vikleindriya (disabled sense) which totals 130. However, in the 28 Prakruti Bandha-sthana, there are only two Udaya-sthana namely 30 and 31 Prakruti. Therefore, each Udaya-sthana has three Satya-sthana namely 62, 88 and 86 Prakruti. There are a total of six Bhang here. The reason for having three Satya-sthana here is that the 28 Prakruti Bandha-sthana is only for the binding of Prakruti suitable for Devagati (heavenly path) and Narakagati (hellish path) Paryapta. Similarly, in the Asanjni Pancha-Indriya Paryapta Jiva-sthana, there are 130 + 6 = 136 Bhang.
In the 23 Prakruti Bandha-sthana of Sanjni (conscious) Pancha-Indriya Paryapta, one should know like the 26 Satya-sthana of Asanjni Pancha-Indriya Paryapta.
