Jainism ke anusar, jo cheezein hum apni aankhon se dekh sakte hain, woh dravya (substance), pudgal (matter), ya pratyaksh vastu hoti hain. Lekin kevali Bhagwan (jinhe keval-gyan prapt hai) ko hum apni indriyon se nahi dekh sakte, kyunki unka sharir to dikhta hai, lekin unka keval-gyan ya atma ka shuddh swaroop aankhon se nahi dekha ja sakta.

Agar aapka prashna “vah kya hai jo hum dekh sakte hain, lekin kevali Bhagwan nahi dekh sakte” ke sandarbh mein hai, to Jain darshan ke anusar, kevali Bhagwan apne shuddh keval-gyan se sab kuch dekh sakte hain, lekin ve ragi-dveshi drishtikon, mithyatva, ya asuddhi nahi dekhte, kyunki unka drishti sada shuddh aur nirmal hota hai.

Isliye, aam vyakti jo bhed-bhav, asuddhi, ya jagat ki vyavaharik vastuon ko dekhte hain, ve sab cheezein kevali Bhagwan ki drishti mein maayik (mithya) hain. Kevali Bhagwan sirf tattvon ka nishchay se gyaan rakhte hain.

Saar mein: Jo hum (samsari jeev) dekh sakte hain, jaise bhed-bhav, asuddhi, ya anitya vastu, un sab ko kevali Bhagwan apne shuddh gyaan se nahi dekhte, kyunki unki drishti sada shuddh tattvon par hi rehti hai.

Yeh Jain darshan ka mool siddhant hai.
