Mistake
Question
You always say that one should choose the path or position that seems more reasonable to him. Now, in your opinion, if it turns out in the end that you were mistaken, then during the time you acted according to what you thought, did you commit a transgression? Would you feel guilty, or would you say to yourself, “I acted according to what I thought; I’m not to blame”?
Answer
No. I was acting under compulsion, because that is what I thought.
