Which pad is bela tap in bessthanak oli
Answer
“Bela tap” is
not usually counted as one of the fixed 20 pads of Vish-Sthanak Tap/Oli. Vish-Sthanak Tapa is described as having
20 different pads, and in each pad one does a minimum of
20 ekasan to attham according to the tradition being followed. In Jain usage, “bela” generally means
two upvas (two consecutive fasts), so it is a
type of fasting, not a standard pad number. (

Explanation
If you actually meant
Navpad Oli, that is different: Navpad Oli has
9 pads, and the
9th day is
Samyag Tap Pad. So “bela tap” does not match the usual Navpad pad names either. (

Spiritual Understanding
In Jain Dharma, the main purpose of tap is
self-control, inner purity, and karmic shedding. The exact form of tap can vary, but the spiritual goal remains the same: reduce attachment and strengthen discipline. (

Takeaway
So the simplest answer is:
Bela tap is a fasting practice, not a fixed pad in Vish-Sthanak Oli. (
