In Jainism, the term "Acharya" refers to a highly revered spiritual teacher and leader of the Jain congregation (Sangha). An Acharya is one of the five supreme beings (Panch Parameshti) and holds the highest rank among Jain monks, responsible for guiding followers, interpreting scriptures, and upholding the monastic code.

The term "Pattacharya" is not commonly found in traditional Jain texts or hierarchy. It may refer in some traditions to a senior monk or a title, but it is not considered higher than "Acharya." Acharya remains the highest recognized monastic rank in Jainism.

Therefore, in Jain hierarchy and tradition, Acharya is greater than Pattacharya.
