Chhah dravya (षट् द्रव्य) yeh hain:

1. Jiva (जीव) – Atma / jeev
2. Pudgala (पुद्गल) – Padarth / matter
3. Dharma (धर्मास्तिकाय) – Gati ka madhyam (motion ka medium)
4. Adharma (अधर्मास्तिकाय) – Sthiti / vishram ka madhyam (rest ka medium)
5. Akash (आकाश) – Sthaan dene wala dravya (space)
6. Kaal (काल) – Samay ka dravya (time)

Ismein “antim dravya” Kaal (काल) hai – use hi chhah dravya mein aakhri, ya chhatha dravya kaha jata hai.

Saararth mein: Kaal ke bina kisi bhi dravya mein parivartan (avastha badalna) sambhav nahi hota. Vahi sab badlaav ka “samayikaran” karta hai. Digambar aur Shwetambar dono parampara mein chhah dravya ki yahi suchi maani jati hai.
