[FairfieldLife] Re: Who is the author of our actions?

Right, it's the Gunas.  The idea that a "you" is problematic since the 
components that comprise the relative "you" are . interconnected with the 
environment, and in a deterministic worldview the precise author can't be 
determined due to the countless contributing factors.
 Thus, the "author" as MMY says could only be the Gunas, within the context of 
the Totality and of an individual body mind, the latter often being identified 
as a direct physical agent.
 Since karma is unfathomable, that means that countless prior causes may have 
contributed to the Vegas killer's actions, and the actual physical act is the 
tip of a huge iceberg of contributing factors.
 For purposes of justice, only the direct agent is held accountable.
