If you have an oil lamp and you forget to put oil in it, the light goes out. It was your forgetfulness and your lack of vigilance that caused the light to go out. Your thoughts were elsewhere. They were not on the tending the lamp. In every moment, you only have one real choice: to be aware of the Self or to be identify with the body and the mind. If you choose the latter course, don't blame God or God's will, or predestination. God did not make you forget the Self.
