Yes and you can verify it by observing how its energy feels inside of you and by noting that the *energy* that you feel inside while doing it is exactly the same energy that you unconsciously/consciously bring into what you do. Sin has very little to do with 'what you do' and a lot to do with 'why' you do it and then with 'how' you do it.] How does it feel inside of you when you do *anything* in fear? How does it feel inside of you when you do anything because of fear? How does praying because of fear feels different than praying out of gratitude and love? How does it feel different inside of you? Anything you do because of fear EXCEPT investigating the root of fear is a sin because the act gets contaminated by the vibrations of fear and greed that you bring into it. Sincere investigating into the root of fear On the other hand, can dismantle fear and it can open the door to recovery. And, only after the fear is replaced from being the motivating and operating force of an act, it becomes free of sin. Once fear is replaced by empowering emotions such as love, peace, gratitude, willingness, compassion, acceptance; the *energy* that we bring into the act changes Immensely and so does the actual *act*! Even if the act that we perform out of love looks same on surface to the one which is done out of fear - we internally KNOW how immensely different it really is! And, we can feel that difference inside us while performing it. Because, an act done in love, gratitude, peace, happiness, acceptance, compassion has a totally different energy feel and that is its own reward! Affects of an act of love, compassion, gratitude And acceptance is not limited to the feelings inside us alone, in fact, it goes on to transform the whole act and ultimately the results. Yet, it is 'why' you do it and 'how' we do it which is really important because that is what defines us and not the results! Results are are only a causality bound by its law.
