If a car hits and kills a person, will the car have Karma ? How is it different in your case? How can a person be responsible for its destiny on which it does not have any control?
"Destiny refers only to name and shape. Since you are neither body nor mind, destiny has no control over you. You are completely free. The cup is conditioned by its shape, material, use and so on. But the space within the cup is free. Even destiny is but an idea. Words can be put together in so many ways! Statements can differ, but do they make any change in the actual? There are so many theories devised for explaining things - all are plausible, none is true." - Nisargadatta Maharaj
