The Vedanta recognizes no sin it only recognizes error. And the greatest error, says the Vedanta is to say that you are weak, that you are a sinner, a miserable creature, and that you have no power and you cannot do this and that.
Power, from the standpoint of experience, is merely the relation that exists between the expression of someone's will and the execution of that will by others.
