outside the body. Or is sin generated by inward thoughts and desires, and manifest in the actions a person takes, the words they speak?

Sin comes out of the body it does not go in. Remember when the Pharisees were bugging Jesus because he and his Apostles were picking some grain from the field and eating it and they were saying how could you guys not be washing your hands before your meal and Jesus says it is not what you put into your body that defiles it, it is what come out of your mouth because what comes out of your mouth is from your heart.

Let us try to look at this in a little different way ( I don't dis agree with you )
All atributes to every thing is given to them by man by defining them in some way or other. Thus good deeds or sin is only defined by us in this world and society.

It is true that thoughts and behaviour are influenced by the environment we live in, the type of food we eat, music, and things outside the body as these are responceble for the change in the subtle energy inside our body responsible for the thoughts, atitude, Speech and behaviour which transform the acts performed by us.

Vibrations of energy are the subtle form of everything in this universe, the doorway to the mind and intelligence is through the sense organs the subtle energy centers and food. The present day food music, and things,outside the body are poluted by four defects
1, the thoughts of the producer ( good or bad)
2, the middle man between the producer and shopkeper ( good or bad)
3, the shopkeper ( good or bad)
4, the person prepraing the things for us.
Thus it is said that all the members should try to do the things like eating , praying and all acitvities with pleasant state and good vibrations in the mind


As per mythology in the past three periods of time, it is said that good will be reduced by 1/4 th the orignal. This is so , to enable the human soul to be able to go back to god more easily. In the present 1/4 of time only the rememberance of god's name is said to be suficient to achive enlightenment.

Jesus said it is not what enters into a man that defiles him, but what comes out from within: hatred, blasphemy, covetousness, etc. But there are some things that when taken into the mind and heart, serve to fuel the evil that dwells in us. What is it they used to say about computers: Garbage in/ Garbage out. So while sin comes from within, a discerning person will try to take good things into themselves- through their choices of music, TV, literature, whatever- rather than things that incite us to sin.

No sin can enter this way.
Only abuse of any one them can create a sin in your life,
eg;If you keep listening to the same music? that say speeks about killing someone, it could make you more susseptical to killing or to put it simply, wear away your standards & morals/boundries in your subconscious. It is so repeatedly happening you tend to lose your own ideals because of this as it becomes more like the 'norm'.
Over here, wellin Melbourne Australia, ( I live in Western A)there was a bloke who stayed in his room for a No. of weeks & only watched Sylvester Stalone in one of his shooting- action movies.
Then he went on a rampage in Melbourne city & killed 12 people.
He was so subjected to that...
As for many of the others, food etc, can't halm you unless you become addicted to it. & there are many variations of addicte things, practically anything that you can write down what you or people you know like, can become addictive, just like the Stallone movies!
....even Anwers?!

Sins enter the body through the belly button. That's why it's important to make sure it's always got plenty of lint to filter out the bad stuff.

Sins come from the inside and outside. It could be something you see, do, think, feel, listen to, etc. But you can't eat sins.

Sin doesn't enter through food or music or anything like that. It is mostly lustful thoughts or violent thoughts you have or doing what you desire and not what God desires you to do or doing what you want and not what God wants.

Food can be sinful if you commit gluttony..but music and things, if used in the wrong way, can be a sin..

Partaking of sinful actions can bring on the results of sin.

Sin is an idea, a concept. Things are not inherently "sinful" It is the thought attached to them.
