बाहाहिं सागरो चेव,
तरियव्वो गुणोदहिं
तरियव्वो गुणोदहिं
To practice good conduct is akin to swim the sea with arms
May be this is possible for people like brave Veer Savarakara; but to cross the sea of virtues or acquisition of all the attributes is not possible for any one. Omniscient are exceptions. Other than them, all are called as partially knowledgeable. The essence of this is that all the qualities are not found in a worldly man. Some fault or other is inherent in each one.
- Uttaradhyayana Sutra 16/37
