## The Chapter of the Seven Tika
Two **satta-sthana** (states of being) should be known. In the **udaya-sthana** (state of arising) of 21 and 27 **prakriti** (natural qualities), there are 80 and 76 **prakriti**, these are two **satta-sthana**. In the **udaya-sthana** of 26 **prakriti**, there are 80, 76, 76 and 75 **prakriti**, these are four **satta-sthana**. Because the **udaya-sthana** of 26 **prakriti** is attained by both **tirthankara** (liberated soul) and **samanya kevali** (ordinary liberated soul). Among them, if a **tirthankara** has 29 **prakriti** **udaya-sthana**, then there will be 80 and 76 **prakriti**, these are two **satta-sthana**. And if an **ordinary kevali** has 26 **prakriti** **udaya-sthana**, then there will be 76 and 75 **prakriti**, these are two **satta-sthana**. Similarly, four **satta-sthana** are attained in the **udaya-sthana** of 30 **prakriti**. In the **udaya-sthana** of 31 **prakriti**, there are 80 and 76 **prakriti**, these are two **satta-sthana**, because this **udaya-sthana** is only for **tirthankara kevali**. In the **udaya-sthana** of 6 **prakriti**, there are 80, 76 and 6 **prakriti**, these are three **satta-sthana**. Among these, the first two **satta-sthana** occur until the end of the **ayogika-kevali** (non-perfected liberated soul) **guna-sthana** (state of qualities) for a **tirthankara**, and the last 6 **prakriti** **satta-sthana** occur at the end of the **ayogika-kevali** **guna-sthana**. In the **udaya-sthana** of 5 **prakriti**, there are 76, 75 and 8 **prakriti**, these are three **satta-sthana**. Among these, the first two **satta-sthana** (76, 75) are attained by an **ordinary kevali** until the end of the **ayogika-kevali** **guna-sthana**, and the last 8 **prakriti** **satta-sthana** is attained at the end. In this way, there are 26 **satta-sthana**.
Now, if these are included in the aforementioned 200 **satta-sthana**, then there are a total of 234 **satta-sthana** in the **sanjnee panchendriya paryaapt jeeva-sthana** (state of being of a sentient five-sensed being with sufficient karma).
The description of the **nama-karma** (karma of name) **bandha-sthana** (state of bondage), **udaya-sthana** and their **bhang** (destruction) in the fourteen **jeeva-sthana** (states of being) is as follows. First, we will explain the **bandha-sthana** and their **bhang**.
