**Sixth Karma Granth: Chapter 6**
**33**
Therefore, in each of these two karmas, from the tenth guna-sthana to the twelfth guna-sthana, there are five natural bonds, five natural upadayas, and five natural sattvas. This is one bhang.
Thus, there are a total of two sanved bhangs with respect to the five jnana-avaranas and the five antarayas.
Of the above two bhangs, the five natural bond-patra, five natural upadayas, and five natural sattvas, this bhang has three options: anadi-ananta, anadi-santa, and sadi-santa.
Of these, the anadi-ananta option is for those who have not attained the anadi mithyatva-drishti or the upashanta-moha guna-sthana.
The sadi-mithyatva-drishti jivas attain samyak-darshan and charitra, and by ascending the shravana, they become upashanta-moha or kshina-moha. They have the anadi-santa option.
The sadi-santa option is for those jivas who have fallen from the upashanta-moha guna-sthana.
The second option, the five natural upadayas and five natural sattvas, has a minimum duration of one time and a maximum duration of antar-muhurta.
Since this bhang occurs in the upashanta-moha guna-sthana, and the minimum duration of the upashanta-moha guna-sthana is one time, therefore, the minimum duration of this bhang is also considered to be one time.
The maximum duration of the upashanta-moha and kshina-moha guna-sthana is antar-muhurta, therefore, the maximum duration of this bhang is also considered to be antar-muhurta.
The description of the sanved bhangs of jnana-avaran and antaraya karma, along with the jiva-sthana, guna-sthana, and time, should be understood in this way.
