When one comes to Sin, one must disturb the religion, because the "sin" is the only conscious and voluntary transgression of the Divine law, in everyday language we speak of guilt.
In granting the Jewish Theological thinking, but also in the Muslim religion-Christian, sin is mainly in harmony with disobedience to the divine will, as from what is believed to be the cause of original sin, Adam disobedience; the Buddhist philosophy of life thinks in a completely different way, it draws its dogma from brahaminica philosophy and holds that man cannot escape the cycle of cause - effect law and makes no mention to the sin as thought by Catholic Christian religion.
In the Jewish tradition, however, this act was not considered to be a “original” sin inherited by all descendants of Adam, but only such as the first sin, not necessarily working even in Adam's descendants.
The common element is the idea that the disobedience to God's Commandments is sin itself, whatever the commandments themselves are; nor this may be surprising, if we bear in mind that, in the corresponding part of the biblical story, God is conceived as rigid authority, along the lines of a King, of oriental Kings.
In this way the feudal Church taught people to fear not only the authority in the person of officials responsible for enforcing the laws (right or wrong) because they have weapons.
