Jainism ke anusar, gun (virtues) ka arth hai aise achhe swabhav ya qualities jo aatma ko shuddh karne mein sahayak hote hain, jaise satya (truth), ahimsa (non-violence), aparigraha (non-possessiveness), daya (compassion), kshama (forgiveness), ityadi.

Hisab mein accha hona, yaani ganit ya vyavaharik hisab rakhne mein nipun hona, Jain dharm ke mool gunon mein nahi aata. Yeh ek worldly ya laukik kaushal hai, na ki aatma ko shuddh karne wala dharmik gun.

Jain dharm mein jor aatma ki shuddhi aur moksha ki aur le jaane wale gunon par diya gaya hai. Isliye, hisab mein accha hona ek avashyak dharmik gun nahi hai, lekin yadi yeh gun vyavahar mein satya, aparigraha, aur imandari ko badhata hai, toh yeh sahayak ho sakta hai.

Samanya roop se, Jain darshan ke anusar, asli gun wahi hain jo aatma ko shuddh aur uttarottar unnati ki or le jaate hain.
