"I
went driving once on a rainy day and it ended up hailing, so my car got
all scratched up. But who decided to take the car out on this rainy
day? I did. Therefore, it is my responsibility alone. I never get tired
of saying that you are not a helpless victim of the harmful influences
of outer space. I know it is hard to hear this, and you can even get
angry with me, but I have to tell the truth: you are where you put
yourself."
Sri Prem Baba
