His height is mentioned as 80 dhanusha. He is said to have lived for 8,400,000 years.
Shreyansnath Bhagwan's Deshna inspired many to take Diksha and achieve Keval-Gnan and Moksha (liberation). He attained Nirvana from Sammed Shikharji Mountain, along with many Sadhus, Sadhvis, Shravakas, and Shravikas.[citation needed]
Shreyansanatha is said to have been born 9,999,900 sagara after his predecessor, Shitalanatha. His successor, Vasupujya, is said to have been born 54 sagara after him.
Shreyansnath Swami's teachings emphasized Nirjara, the discharge of karmas. He explained that karmas are in stages of charging and discharging, with Nirjara being the stage of discharge. He distinguished between Akaam Nirjara (discharge without purpose) and Sakaam Nirjara (discharge with purpose). For a self-realized person, Sakaam Nirjara ensures that no new karmas are charged, as they remain vigilant in their awareness of being a Knower and Seer. Shreyansnath also highlighted the importance of penance (tapa) in achieving Sakaam Nirjara. He categorized penance into two types: Bahya Tapa (external penance) and Abhyantar Tapa (internal penance).[citation needed]
The six types of Bahya Tapa are:
The six types of Abhyantar Tapa are:
Through Abhyantar Tapa, true karmic shedding occurs. Practices like Prayashchit help cleanse sins, while maintaining equanimity and viewing others as innocent aids in achieving liberation.[citation needed]
