    8 gunn of siddha

    12 months ago 453

    Here are the 8 guṇ (qualities) of Siddha (liberated souls) as taught in Jain Dharma:

    • Anant Jñān: infinite knowledge (keval-jñān).
    • Anant Darshan: infinite perception (keval-darshan).
    • Anant Chāritra: perfect, passionless conduct (vītarāgatā).
    • Anant Vīrya: infinite energy/power.
    • Avyābādha Sukha: unobstructed, eternal bliss.
    • Akṣaya Sthiti: eternal existence in Siddha-śilā (never returning to saṃsāra).
    • Arūpitva: formless, bodiless state (only pure soul-substance).
    • Aguru-laghutva: absolute equality among Siddhas—neither “heavier” nor “lighter,” no rise or fall.

    Notes on traditions:

    • Digambar and Śvetāmbara traditions both accept these eight as the essential attributes of Siddhas. Wording may vary in some texts, but the spiritual meaning remains the same. Some texts mention minor variants in enumeration, yet the essence—infinitude of knowledge, perception, conduct, energy, bliss, eternity, formlessness, and equality—remains unchanged.
