In Jain Dharma, we revere monks who practice right conduct and help others progress on the path to liberation. If you mean Kanji Swami (a well-known Jain monk), many Jains regard him with respect for his spiritual guidance. However, as with many figures in Jain history, there are different views and emphasis in the Digambar and Śvetāmbara traditions about specific teachings, lineages, or roles of individual sadhus.

If you’d like, I can share general Jain principles about how to evaluate a monk’s teaching and conduct, or provide a tightly sourced summary from authentic Jain scriptures about the virtues of sadhu-sanga and right conduct.
