have to change its state of existence; unlike the worldly souls which must take birth, repeatedly, in the four states of existence. Since its own-qualities and modes remain stable, it is non-transient (acala). Being utterly autonomous, it is independent (anālamba).
Ācārya Kundakunda's Bhaktisamgraha-Siddhabhakti:
अइसयमव्वाबाहं सोक्खमणंतं अणोवमं परमं । इंदियविसयातीदं अप्पत्तं अच्चयं च ते पत्ता ॥९॥
वे सिद्ध भगवान् अतिशय, अव्याबाध, अनन्त, अनुपम, उत्कृष्ट, इन्द्रिय विषयों से अतीत, अप्राप्त - जो पहले कभी प्राप्त नहीं हुआ - तथा स्थायी सुख को प्राप्त हुए हैं।
The happiness (sukha) of the liberated soul (the Siddha) is miraculous, free from obstruction, without an end, unparalleled, supreme, sense-independent, novel and eternal.
