Ācārya Nemicandra's Dravyasamgraha:
जीवादीसद्दहणं सम्मत्तं रूवमप्पणो तं तु । दुरभिणिवेसविमुक्कं णाणं सम्मं खु होदि सदि जम्हि ॥ ४१ ॥ Belief in substances, souls and non-souls, as these actually are, is right faith. Right faith is an inherent attribute of the soul. Having achieved right faith, knowledge of these substances, without fallacies of doubt (samśaya), error or perversity (uimoha or viparyaya), and uncertainty or indefiniteness (vibhrama oranadhyavasāya), is right knowledge.
Jain, Vijay K. (2013), “Ācārya Nemichandra's Dravyasamgraha”, p. 150.
Ācārya Amrtacandra's Puruşārthasiddhyupāya: इत्याश्रितसम्यक्त्वैः सम्यग्ज्ञानं निरूप्य यत्नेन । आम्नाययुक्तियोगैः समुपास्यं नित्यमात्महितैः ॥ ३१ ॥
Having attained right faith (samyagdarśana) as described above, for the advancement of the Self on spiritual path, one should exert oneself wholeheartedly for the acquisition of right knowledge (samyagjñāna) through proper understanding of the tenets of valid knowledge contained in the Scripture.
कर्तव्योऽध्यवसायः सदनेकान्तात्मकेषु तत्त्वेषु । संशयविपर्ययानध्यवसायविविक्तमात्मरूपं तत् ॥ ३५ ॥
The nature of reality (substances) must be ascertained with the help of the Jaina doctrine of manifold points of view (anekāntavāda) and the knowledge thus obtained, free from doubt, misapprehension, and delusion, is really the nature of the soul.
