“Chaturbhangi punya–paap” generally points to understanding punya (merit) and paap (sin) from four angles / fourfold way of looking, not to a fixed sutra with these exact words.

Let’s keep it very simple:

Punya and Paap in Jain Dharma

• Punya (पुण्य)

Good / auspicious karma. Comes from: - daya (compassion) - daan (charity) - ahimsa (non‑violence) - satya (truthfulness) - self‑control, discipline, helping others Result: - sukh (comfort, happiness) - good birth, good body, good family, prosperity, etc. BUT: Even punya binds the soul. It also has to be finished and shed one day.

• Paap (पाप)

Bad / inauspicious karma. Comes from: - himsa (violence) - krodh (anger), maan (pride), maya (deceit), lobh (greed) - lies, stealing, misuse of sexuality, too much possessiveness Result: - dukh (suffering) - disease, quarrels, poverty, lower births, narak, etc.

Jain Nav‑tattva me bhi Punya aur Paap dono alag tattva ginee jate hain – dono hi bandhan ka kaaran hain, sirf phal alag‑alag hai (sukh vs dukh). Ultimate goal: dono ko paar karna, sirf punya badhaana nahi.
