Certainly! The "Tattvartha Sutra" (also known as "Tattvarthadhigama Sutra" or "Tattvarthasutra") is one of the most important Jain texts, composed by Acharya Umaswati (Umasvami). The text summarizes the core philosophy of Jainism in succinct aphorisms (sutras), and is traditionally divided into 10 chapters with a total of 357 sutras (aphorisms).

The "128 shlokas" (verses) you mention refer to a popular Sanskrit versification of the Tattvartha Sutra, which condenses its teachings into 128 verses for easier memorization and recitation. This versified version is commonly recited in Jain households and by students.
