If I break this will i commit a sin
In Jainism, sin (pāp) depends mainly on intention, carelessness, and harm caused.
- If you accidentally break an object with no violence, anger, or negligence, it is not the same as a serious sin.
- If breaking it causes harming living beings, anger, carelessness, or waste/destruction out of attachment, then pāpa increases.
- Jain ethics especially stress ahimsa and mindful conduct.
So, simply breaking something by accident is generally not a major sin, but if it involves violence or careless harm, it creates karmic bondage.
If you want, I can explain this according to Jain karmic theory in simple words.
