Answer
Visuddhi Labdhi in Jainism means an inner state of purity in which the soul’s passions become mild enough for right reflection on the Tattvas and for progress toward samyaktva, or right faith. It is one of the five preparatory labdhis described in Jain tradition: kṣayopaśama, viśuddhi, deśanā, prāyogya, and karaṇa. ( jainkosh.org)Explanation
