## Sixth Karma-Manas
**325**
**31** There are two **Udayasthanas** (places of arising): **30** and **31** **Prakritis**. While discussing **Bandhastanas** (places of bondage) earlier, it was mentioned that **Sāsādan** beings, who are capable of attaining **Devagati** (heavenly state), bind **26** **Prakritis**, while **Namātrātrākor** beings bind **18** **Prakritis**. However, even among **Sāsādan** beings, only those who are **Karana-paryāpta** (sufficient in their karmic causes) are capable of binding **Devagati**. Therefore, apart from these two **Udayasthanas** (**30** and **31** **Prakritis**), no other **Udayasthanas** are possible.
Now, if we consider the **Udayasthanas** of **30** **Prakritis** in relation to humans, then two **Sattasthanas** (places of existence) are possible: **62** and **88** **Prakritis**. However, if we consider the **Udayasthanas** of **30** **Prakritis** in relation to **Tiryach** (non-human) beings with five senses, then only one **Sattasthan** is possible: **88** **Prakritis**. This is because the **Sattasthan** of **62** **Prakritis** is only attained by those who have fallen from the **Upasama-śreṇi** (state of calmness) and have attained the **Sāsādan** state. However, the **Upasama-śreṇi** is not possible for **Tiryach** beings. Therefore, the **Sattasthan** of **62** **Prakritis** is excluded here.
For **Sāsādan** beings who bind **26** **Prakritis**, which is possible for both **Tiryach** beings with five senses and humans, all seven previously mentioned **Udayasthanas** are possible. Among these, all **Udayasthanas** except for the **Udayasthan** of **30** **Prakritis** result in the **Sattasthan** of **88** **Prakritis**. However, in the **Udayasthan** of **30** **Prakritis**, both **Sattasthanas** are possible for humans: **62** and **88** **Prakritis**. The **Bandhastan** of **30** **Prakritis** should be mentioned as equal to the **Bandhastan** of **26** **Prakritis**.
In the **Udayasthan** of **31** **Prakritis**, only the **Sattasthan** of **31** **Prakritis** is attained. This is because the **Udayasthan** of **31** **Prakritis** is only attained by **Tiryach** beings.
Thus, there are a total of **8** **Sattasthanas** in the **Sāsādan** **Gunasthan** (state of karmic qualities). The details of **Bandhastanas**, **Udayasthanas**, **Sattasthanas**, and their relationships in the **Sāsādan** **Gunasthan** should be understood in this way.
