Sin is a human invention. The sense of sin and guilt played a role at some point of time in our social evolution. But they are not absolute truths. It needs to be replaced through constant learning by experience and conscious discernment. However, the groves and tendencies we set forth in a lifetime often gets carried over in another life. If life threw a challenge or a difficulty and instead of learning and growing from it we simply try to escape then it keeps returning back and grows bigger and bigger. This is especially true of suicide. It is never an escape. In fact it only makes things worse and the tendency is carried over in another life. It is best therefore to face the challenges of life with faith in the Divine. Suicide is not a solution, it only adds to the complication.
