Punya and Päp Karma
Päp or Sinful Karma
We acquire Pap or sinful Karma when we perform or reflect on any non-virtuous activities such as violence, dishonesty, stealing, not behaving chastely, attachment to worldly objects, anger, conceit, deceit, lust, revenge, and having impure thoughts.
When the Päp karma produce result - they create an unfavorable environment such as unhealthy body, birth in nonhuman life, or non-virtuous families, which may bring misery, discomfort, unhappiness, and dissatisfaction.
Under such an environment, it is extremely difficult to progresses spiritually.
