The same soul, as above, being born in hell, in its incompletely undevelopable state, has only its current age, viz., does not bind the next age; and therefore only 145 exist.
145, all but the 2 ages which are neither current nor bound and the Tirthankara, here are 5 divisions. There are 12 possible combinations as human and sub-human can bind any of the four ages, but celestial and hellish can bind only either human or sub-human ages.

Those divisions which are repeated, or have one and the same ages as current and bound, must not be counted and have therefore a zero under them, thus only 5 are counted and marked 1 to 5.
