Jainism does not believe in a single creator God who governs or controls the universe. Instead, Jain philosophy teaches that the universe is eternal and operates according to its own natural laws. In Jainism, there are countless souls (jivas), and each soul has the potential to attain liberation (moksha) and become a Siddha—a liberated, perfected being.

Jains worship the Tirthankaras, who are enlightened beings that have shown the path to liberation, but they are not creators or controllers of the universe. Respect and reverence are given to these souls for their qualities of knowledge, perception, and conduct, but they are not considered as a single, almighty God.

In summary: According to Jainism, there is not one supreme God, but infinite souls, each with the potential for ultimate purity and liberation.
