3- THE PURE THOUGHT-ACTIVITY
णो ठिदिबंधट्टाणा पयडिट्ठाणा पदेसठाणा वा ।
uit अणुभागट्ठाणा जीवस्स ण उदयठाणा वा ॥४०॥
(शुद्ध) जीव के स्थितिबंधस्थान नहीं हैं, प्रकृतिस्थान नहीं हैं, प्रदेशस्थान नहीं हैं, अनुभागस्थान नहीं हैं, तथा उदयस्थान नहीं हैं।
The soul (ātmā) in its pure, nirupādhi state has no place for duration-bondage (sthitibandhasthāna), for naturebondage (prakṛtibandhasthāna), for fruition-bondage (anubhagabandhasthāna), and for quantity-of-spacepoints-bondage (pradeśabandhasthāna).
EXPLANATORY NOTE
First the psychic-bondage (bhavabandha) or the jivabandha takes place due to the impure-cognition (aśuddhopayoga) of the soul (jiva). As a result of the bhavabandha, the dravyabandha takes place. Therefore, the cause of the dravyabandha is the bhavabandha. Bondage is of four kinds: 1) according to the nature or species of karma -prakṛtibandha; 2) according to the duration of karma-sthitibandha; 3) according to the fruition of karma - anubhavabandha; and 4) according to the quantity of space-points of karma - pradeśabandha. The threefold activity (yoga) causes prakṛtibandha and pradeśabandha. The passions (kaṣāya) in form of attachment, etc., cause sthitibandha and anubhavabandha.1
