Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
All creation, every creature, is made up of the five elements, and the behavior of each creature depends on the combination of the three gunas - sattva, rajas, tamas. There is no question of being responsible for anything that happens in the world. It is only by taking delivery of responsibility that one suffers.
The consciousness of being present, the five elements and the three gunas, that is the total of the universal manifestation.
In your original state there is no awareness of awareness, therefore no question of knowledge. The knowledge comes only with the appearance of the body and consciousness. This knowledge is really ignorance, and whatever knowledge is based on that is also ignorance.
