Jain dharm ke hisāb se “bura gyan” do tarah se samjha jātā hai:

1. Mithyā Gyan (गलत gyan)

• ātmā, karma, punya–pāp, moksh vagairah ke baare mein
• galat soch de

• satya ke viparit baat manvā de,

use mithyā gyan kahte hain. Is se mithyā darshan (गलत shraddhā) paida hoti hai, jo bandhan badhātī hai, isliye yeh achchhā nahi hai.

2. Gyan ka galat upyog

• ahinsā ke viruddh ho (jaise kisi ko nukksān pahunchāne ke tareeke),
• chori, kapat, kām–krodh–lobh–mān ko badhāye,

aisa upyog kiya huā gyan bhi ashubh mānā jātā hai, chahe vah tathya sahi hi kyon na ho. Jain dharm me gyan tabhi “achchhā” hai jab:

• samyak darshan (sahi shraddhā) ke sāth ho
• aur samyak charitra (sahi ācharan) ko sahārā de.

Isliye: jo gyan hamein asatya, mithyātā, aur himsā ki taraf le jāye, vah achchhā gyan nahi hai.
