## Introduction
[47] There is only one binding place for **antaraya karma**, as all beings from the first **guna sthana** to the tenth **guna sthana** bind all five types of **antaraya karma**.
[3] The first **maha dandaka chulika** lists 120 out of the 148 **uttar prakritis** of the eight karmas that are capable of binding. Even among these, only 117 are capable of binding in the **mithyatva guna sthana**, as the **tirthankara**, **aahara sharira**, and **aahara ka anga upanga** do not bind in this **guna sthana**. Out of these 117, a **tiryanch** or **manushya** with **mithyatva drishti** who is about to attain **samyaktv** binds only 73 **prakritis**. He does not bind the remaining 44 **ashubh prakritis**, such as **asata vedaniya**, **napumsak ved**, and **stri ved**. This being does not bind any **ayukarma** at the time of attaining **samyaktv**. Among all the sutras in this text, the second sutra of this **chulika** is the longest, hence it is called the first **maha dandaka**.
[4] The second **maha dandaka chulika** lists 67 **prakritis** that are capable of binding for **mithyatva drishti** beings of the six realms of hell, excluding the **devas** and the **narakis** of the seventh earth, who are about to attain **samyaktv**. Due to its length, it is called the second **maha dandaka**.
[5] The third **maha dandaka chulika** lists 73 **prakritis** that are capable of binding for **mithyatva drishti** **naraki** beings of the seventh earth who are about to attain **samyaktv**. Due to its length, it is called the third **maha dandaka**.
[6] The **utkrusht sthiti chulika** - After understanding the nature of **karma**, their different types, and their binding places, every practitioner will have the curiosity to know how long the bound **karma** stays with the being, whether the duration of all **karma** is the same or different, and after how much time the **karma** bears its fruit. To satisfy this curiosity, two **chulika**s named **utkrusht sthiti** and **jghanya sthiti** have been created. The **utkrusht sthiti chulika** lists the **utkrusht sthiti** of the eight **karma**. For example, the **utkrusht sthiti** of **jnana avaraniya**, **darshan avaraniya**, **vedaniya**, and **antaraya** is 30 **koda kodi sagaropama**. The **utkrusht sthiti** of **mohaniya karma** is 70 **koda kodi sagaropama**.
