In Jain literature, there is a reference to the phasing of a clock. It is struck at one place and the vibrations of its sound set going thousands of distant clocks, and it goes on like that over immeasurable stretches. People took it for a cock and bull story. However, when science presented the theory of the fast pace of the sound-waves, the truth of the Jain doctrine was established. Today, phonology is considered to be the greatest achievement of the modern age.

Unless a person moves in the direction of subtle modes, he cannot find the truth. Unless an anekantic approach is evolved, there is no possibility of moving in the direction.
