Sin

Then Professor Sharma and I discussed the subject of sin.

"Some religions say," Punditji thought a moment, "that if I commit a sin and go to church, or go to the heavenly Father, and I confess, ‘Oh, Father, I have committed sin,’ that I shall then be free from that sin. We Hindus think this is wrong. Because once I have committed that sin, natural law is against me and I will get punishment from that natural law — which is being operated by God. Even if I pray to God, He won’t help me. So, what does Hinduism say? Don’t think that by praying to God, by going to the temple, you will be free from the punishment for your sins. You will be punished. This is natural law."
