Guiding Light: Free Will Or Destiny

Among non secular masters, a press release is commonly made – One meets one’s future on the very highway that one takes to keep away from it. I’ve seen this coming true repeatedly. Some folks don’t need their relationship to finish and take a look at desperately to do the whole lot to make it work, and nonetheless it doesn’t work out.

Similarly, in the course of the pandemic, there have been so many individuals who had been so scared about getting an an infection that they did the whole lot they might to keep away from it and nonetheless ended up with Covid.

Similarly, individuals who had been afraid of coronary heart assaults, adopted a wholesome life-style, together with train, sleep, and the whole lot that the physician beneficial and a few. Still the particular person ended up getting a coronary heart assault.

So, the assertion is actually true, that one meets one’s future on the very highway one takes to keep away from it, on the identical time.

At the identical time, does it imply that one will do nothing and settle for no matter occurs as future? No, that’s not true.

Because all that we have now is our palms is our means to suppose, to really feel a want and to behave. Traditionally that is referred to as jnana-shakti, iccha shakti and kriya shakti. Let us use it to reside a fulfilled life. I do know of somebody who had a sudden coronary heart assault. He was very disciplined by way of food plan, relaxation and train. Because he was doing all the correct issues, he had a light assault. He actually walked into the hospital, the place the physician discovered a block in one of many principal arteries, did an angioplasty, and inside 48 hours, he was again dwelling, resuming his day-to-day actions slowly. This was potential solely due to the care taken to make sure health and good well being.

Therefore, allow us to do all that’s in our energy to handle issues with out being paranoid or fearful or anxious about it.

Whatever the outcome and penalties, allow us to be taught to just accept it with good grace as God’s grace, God’s Prasad. That is a good way to reside life.
