in quality (guna). These are their unnatural mode-of-qualities - vibhāva guņaparyāya. In the matter (pudgala), sequential changes take place in qualities like colour, and in the soul (jīva), sequential changes take place in knowledge, due to union with other substances; these are unnatural mode-of-qualities - vibhāva gunaparyāya. Since every substance (dravya) has infinite number of qualities (guņa) and modes (paryāya), only the Words of the Omniscient Lord Jina are able to expound these. Those who rely on absolutistic point-of-view cannot expound such complexities. People who rely solely on the impure states of substances are under delusion and are wrong-believers (mithyādrsti).

Lord Jina has expounded that those who rely solely on the modes (paryāya), like the human being, are the wrong-believers (mithyādrsti); such souls are engaged in impure-soul nature (parasamaya). Those who rely on own soul-nature, like knowledge (jñāna) and perception (darśana), are the right
