The ultimate aim of these learned sages is to attain omniscience (kevalajñāna) which is infinite and all-embracing knowledge of all substances and their infinite modes, extending through the past, the present, and the future. They reckon that deluding, knowledge-obscuring, perception-obscuring, and obstructive karmas still remain to be completely destroyed with the help of pure concentration to ultimately reach to the stage of omniscience and become a ‘Jina' (Victor).
