To retire and do nothing while others work and do something is not necessarily a sin. It may be so in the case of the young, the healthy, or of those with obligations: it is certainly not so in the case of the aspirant who has reached a crisis where he needs to get away for a time to give all his thought, all his energy, to the inner search for God.
