(All, including external and internal glories, there are forty six attributes of Shri Arihannta Deva. Shri Arihanta and Siddha have omnivision (Omni-perception) and omniscience both together and not one after the other). 2. Shri Siddha Bhagwan :--
Those souls who have destroyed the bondage of eight types of Karmic matters (Karman body or Dravya Karmas), are possessed of the eight great attributes, abide at the topmost part of the Universe and are the most exalted and indestructlble supreme perfect souls.
(From ordinary point of view. Siddha Bhagwan is said to possess eight great attributes, but in fact from realistic point of view, Siddha Bhagwan possesses infinite Attributes.) 3. Shri Acharya :
Those saints who are possessed of five kinds of conduct, who are firm in their determination, and who are profound in virtue are called Heads of the order of Saints (Acharya).
(The Acharyas have 36 rites (Mulgunas).
