What is sin, and is the universal order legislating against it .
What is sin ?
Taking something from this material world that is legitimately allotted to you by your karmic synchronicity or fate, according to your social station in life, is not sinful but can be entangleing . Although thoughtful and careful consideration of our activities should never be left within the realms of speculations or any whimsical choices , but rather must be solely based on a proper understanding of the science of consciousness , i.e ., how consciousness is elevated or degraded . Information about the scientific movements of the human psychological self is the sciences contained fully in the Bhagavad Gita and the Srimad Bhagavatam.
Thus, in Vedic culture, whatever you naturally take or acquire that has been alloted by fate having acted according to specific duties is perfectly fine , but it’s also recommended certain portions should be offered back to Divinity or His agents , or in charitable acts , in that way actions become less entangleing and far more elevating . Although piety is elevating , we should be careful not to neglect something even greater than piety , namely developing a direct relationship to Divinity Himself , that is the perfection of the short time we spend in the current body we find ourselves in .Thus , Krishna says in Bhagavad Gita, one who sees action in inaction and inaction in action is in knowledge , and everyone should unpack the mysterious nature of that statement.
Sin is defined , when someone encroaches on others’ territories or exploits other persons for selfish reasons , that will cause harm in many different ways , it can always be defined as something that goes against morality , ethics , and expected duties . It will always cause all sorts of pain to the others . One should know any physical or emotional pain one inflicts will be alloted back to the perpetrator and with interest . Sinful activities cause greater entanglements, and we should know all the persons involved are entangleing themselves
A future will play out with the same actors, but in different situations. Pay back begins .
According to ones station in life and the specific duties associated with it comes different calculations of the degrees of sin and their reaction . An educated man with social responsibility , or a leader role has to pay a heavy price if he or she performs the wrong actions . The example of a state leader issuing orders for war comes to mind , if women and children are killed or the whole basis of the war is based against the natural moral and international laws , the leader and his country will pay the price as well as the people who gave him the power in the first place .
Thus, it behoves everyone to understand how to carefully act in this life ,and ultimately how to raise one’s consciousness and awareness.
This great science of action reactions and the systematic universal responses are discussed fully in Bhagavad Gita.
