Those who do not expect anything from karma and are endowed with yoga (self-power, strength, enthusiasm, valor) are called **Sayogikevali**, and their specific nature is called **Sayogikevali Gunasthan**. **Sayogikevali** are also called **Jin**, **Jinendra**, **Jineswar** because they are free from destructive karmas.
The tendency of yoga arises from these three instruments: mind, speech, and body. Therefore, there are three types of yoga according to their instruments: (1) **Manoyoga**, (2) **Vachanayoga**, (3) **Kayayoga**. **Kevali Bhagwan** uses **Manoyoga** to answer someone mentally. When a **Manaparyayajnani** or **Anuttar Vibhagavasi** deva asks a question mentally without using words, **Kevali** answers them mentally. The questioner, being a **Manaparyayajnani** or **Anuttar Vibhagavasi** deva, directly perceives the mental substances organized by **Kevali Bhagwan** to answer through their **Manaparyayajnan** or **Avadhijnan**. Based on the structure of these mental substances, they infer the answer to their question. **Kevali Bhagwan** uses **Vachanayoga** to give teachings and **Kayayoga** for actions like movement.
If a **Sayogikevali** is a **Tirthankara**, they establish a **Tirth** and propagate it by giving teachings.
The duration of this **Gunasthan** is from **Jghan** to **Antarmuhurt** and the highest is slightly less than crores of years in the past.
