Sin is missing the mark

Kind

Formula

Interpretive layers

Teaching pattern

Psychological interpretation

To the mystic, sin is not the breaking of codes but missing the mark: having an aim in life and failing to realise it. To put away sin is to realise the aim, one's own or another's, and that is done by giving up the belief that keeps it unrealised.
