Siddhäs are liberated souls. They have reached the highest state, salvation, and have attained Moksha. They have eradicated all their karma, and therefore do not accumulate any more new karma, thus freeing themselves forever from the cycle of birth and death (Akshaya Sthiti). They are experiencing ultimate, unobstructed bliss (Abädhya Sukh) and are not subjected to any kind of suffering. They possess perfect and total knowledge (Anatjnäna, Kevaljnäna, omniscience) and perception (Anat Darshan, Kevaldarshana, omni-perception), that means they know and perceive everything in total that is happening now, that has happened in the past, and that which will happen in the future all at the same time, and they also possess infinite vigor (Anant-Virya). They have no desires and are completely detached thus making them immune from any sense of craving or aversion (Anant Chäritra, Viträgatva). Despite the fact that all Siddhäs retain a unique identity, they are equal (Aguru-laghutva) and formless (Arupitva).
