Arham in Jain Dharma refers to the supreme, venerable one — the Arihant, the perfected soul who has destroyed inner enemies like krodh, maan, maya, and lobh and attained keval jnana.

In simple meaning:

• Arham = worthy of worship
• It is also used as a sacred name for the Arihant/Paramatma
• It expresses reverence for the pure, liberated state of the soul

In Jain tradition, “Arham” is a highly auspicious and powerful sacred word, connected with devotion, purity, and आत्म-शुद्धि.
