The process of the other philosophies does not accept this. The view of Jain philosophy regarding the place of liberation is the most unique. In Buddhist philosophy, there is no clearly defined place for the independent self-entity, so there is no hope of obtaining any idea regarding the place of liberation. All ancient Vedic philosophies are self-entity oriented, lacking any concept of a separate place for liberation; however, Jain philosophy is independent self-entity oriented, yet not self-entity validating, thus making it necessary to consider the place of liberation, a consideration that has indeed been made. In the end of Tattvartha, the commentator Umaswati states that liberated souls, having freed themselves from all kinds of bodies, ascend and ultimately remain established at the forefront of the world, where they reside eternally.
4. The interpretations of Tattvartha can be compared with the Brahma Sutra in terms of sectarian interpretations. Just as many acharyas with entirely different views on various subjects have written interpretations on the Brahma Sutra and have attempted to establish their statements based on the Upanishads, similarly, scholars from both the Digambara and Shvetambara sects have written interpretations on Tattvartha and have attempted to substantiate their opposing views based on Agama. This establishes the common fact that just as, due to the prestige of the Vedanta literature, talented acharyas with differing views have felt the need to rely on the Brahma Sutra to express their distinctive statements, so too, due to the established prestige of Tattvarthadhigama in Jain literature, scholars from both sects felt the need to rely on it to present their respective views. Despite this gross similarity, there is a significant distinction in the sectarian interpretations of Brahma Sutra and Tattvartha regarding fundamental subjects such as the nature of reality, the self, and God: the well-known interpreters of Brahma Sutra differ greatly from one another, often showing as much variation as between the east and west.
