Yes. And not just he but everyone. > no sense of responsibility of his actions. I wouldn't say so. One can still do whatever one *thinks* is best, and at the same time be aware that whatever we think, is totally conditioned and is what God wants us to think (paraphrasing Balsekar) > The legal term for > that is:'non compos mentis'.

But as it is, Irmely, I am just sceptical about our sense of individuality and self. And if you read the Bhagavad Gita, it is exactly what Krishna says to Arjuna, when he refuses to kill his own relatives. Krishna says: I have already killed them. Besides that, brain research indicates, that decissions are already taken in the brain, *before* we become aware of them, and own them my our 'individuality' As I see it, modern man is addicted to a cult of individuality.
