The thirteen *Anuyogadwaras* of Time, Interval, Emotion, and Least-Most, provide a more detailed description of *Sthitibandha*.
**Chhakkhandagam**
**Padanikṣepa:** The description of *Sthitibandha* through the three stages of Increase, Decrease, and Stability is called *Padanikṣepa*. This *Anuyogadwara* explains that if a being binds a lower *Sthiti* in the first instance and then binds a higher *Sthiti* in the second instance, how much can the binding increase at most and how much can it increase at least. Similarly, if a being binds a higher *Sthiti* in the first instance and then binds a lower *Sthiti* in the second instance, how much can the binding decrease at most and how much can it decrease at least. The stable binding that occurs after increase and decrease is called *Avashtita* binding. *Padanikṣepa* is further described through the three *Anuyogadwaras* of *Samutkirtanā*, *Swāmitva*, and *Alpबहुत्व*.
**Vṛddhi:** This *Anuyogadwara* examines *Sthitibandha* through six types of increase and decrease, similar to the thirteen *Adhikāras* of *Bhujākara* binding.
After describing the structure of *Anubhāgabandha* through twenty-four *Anuyogadwaras*, it is also described through the four *Anuyogadwaras* of *Bhujākara*, *Padanikṣepa*, *Vṛddhi*, and *Sthāna*. The nature of the first three is similar to *Sthitibandha*, except that *Anubhāga* should be used instead of *Sthiti*. After describing the structure of *Anubhāgabandha* through these three *Anuyogadwaras*, the *Sthāna* *Anuyogadwara* describes the *Adhyavasāna* *Sthānas* that are the cause of *Anubhāgabandha*, along with many other subtle aspects related to *Anubhāga* through numerous *Anuyogadwaras* like *Anantaropaṇidhā*, *Paramparopaṇidhā*, and *Tīvramandatā*.
After describing the structure of *Pradeshabandha* through twenty-four *Anuyogadwaras*, it is also described through the five *Anuyogadwaras* of *Bhujākara*, *Padanikṣepa*, *Vṛddhi*, *Adhyavasāna Samudāhara*, and *Jīva Samudāhara*. The nature of the first three is as before, except that *Pradesha* should be used instead of *Anubhāga*. *Adhyavasāna Samudāhara* describes the *Pradeshabandha* *Sthānas* and their causal *Yogasthānas*, along with their results and *Alpबहुत्व*. *Jīva Samudāhara* describes the same based on the beings who bind *Pradeshabandha*.
In this way, the Lord *Bhūtabali* has described *Prakṛti*, *Sthiti*, *Anubhāga*, and *Pradeshabandha* in great detail, hence the name of this sixth *Khaṇḍa* is known as "**Mahābandha**".
