RE: Destiny or Free will?
Death is something that happens to us, and we don't control what happens to us, we control what we do.
In any case, it may not be right to say that we have absolute freedom, but we do have it to a very high degree.
There is varience .Someone have more free will and someone less.. Like for example addict on street dont have too much choices becouse his whole life is one thing. But someone who have knowledge have more opportunities. So question is what is factor which deciding who have more free will.
In my opinion, freedom has a lot to do with self-control. So it is true that an addict is likely to have less freedom than someone who does not, but at the same time, he has some power over himself that he is not using and therefore, he is choosing to remain that way, and therefore he is also responsible for their own addiction. He can begin to make better decisions to help him break out of his addiction and regain his freedom. For me, the main determining factor between having more or less freedom is making the decision to do so.
All people can achieve liberation if they set their mind to it.
