We have seen also that to know an object is to know the relations it bears to Self and other surrounding things as well. We have also seen the particular forms of knowledge which the Jain savants teach in their own peculiar way. We have seen further that the last form or the Keval jnana is not only a form of knowledge but a source of knowledge as well, free from all mediate processes. It now behoves us to enquire as to what other possible sources of knowledge we are ordinarily aware of.
It is but a truism to say that you and I depend upon our mind to know the world.
