Jainism ke anusar, "padarth" arthaat "vastu" ya "tatva" ko kaha jata hai. Jain darshan ke mutabiq, padarthon ke mukhya chhe (6) prakaar hote hain, jo "shad-dravya" ke naam se jane jate hain:

1. Jeev (aatma)
2. Ajeev (ajeevat tattva), jo paanch prakaar ka hota hai:

- Pudgal (matter) - Dharma (motion) - Adharma (rest) - Akash (space) - Kaal (time)

Naam ek padarth nahi hai, balki "naam karma" Jain karm siddhant ke anusar ek karma hai, jo jeev ke gun aur sharirik swaroop ko nirdharit karta hai. Naam karma jeev ke shareer, gyaan, indriyaadi swaroop ko prabhavit karta hai.

Sankshep mein:

• Padarth ke prakaar: Chhe (6) (Jeev, Pudgal, Dharma, Adharma, Akash, Kaal)
• Naam padarth nahi hai, balki ek karma hai (naam karma) jo jeev par asar karta hai.
