Dear Hari!
Finding your webside and hearing from you again was for me touching experience.
I am wandering for quite some time about message from Bhagavad Gita about sense of responsibility.There is a choise give to Arjuna-To work through false ego or being surrendered to God.In second case he is not responsible for his action (as Prabhupad is writting in his purport).
Are we here not for learning how to be responsible?As far as my understanding goes life is a sequence of making decisions,accepting consequences to be mature to love.
Thank you
Damodar

Your text really made me think. I wrote an answer but was not happy with it. I did not post the text. The next day I gave a lecture about this topic. You will find the answer to your post in the lectures section on the main web site under the title "Responsibility and Need." I hope it is satisfactory.
