Reality is neither substance alone nor alone modes. Substance persists through changing modes.
Modes come into existence and perish.
So Jaina thinkers define reality as characterised by the trio of orgination, destruction and persistence. Even soul is not an exception to it. Corresponding to the infinite characters or aspects of reality there are infinite views. Different views grasp and present different aspects of reality as they are governed by different conditions of purpose, intention, relevance, etc. Each view, though does not contain the whole truth, does contain the partial truth.
