Do we have Free Will? by Swami Sarvapriyananda

I beg to also quote from Gospel of Sri Ramkrishna Thakur "All those who are bound are free to exercise their free will and All those who are free are bound by God's will".

[@jlind3161]

All is bound! Until soon. Time. Is. Up! Free will is an urge, a desire, Not simply an ability. What an individual is perceiving as his own free will, is a self conditioned illusion which was and is constantly refined by oneself. This illusion is completely internalized, or assimilated inside of every individual mind, because this illusion is inseperable connected with individual intelligence (the implantation of indiviudal intelligence and the evolution of itself over generations). On that basis an understanding or better the understanding of everything is impossible. We humans call that illusion life. But death is only biological. Who said your unconscious mind is really your own unconscious mind all the time and that the unconscious mind is not available to introspection, or that it dies? No it was not Freud , it is you, dear reader. Benjamin Libet’s experiment regarding the so called readiness potential, which results were confirmed by Haggard and Eimer and lately (2009) by Kühn and Brass proofs that every single voluntary action is preceded by a measure of activity in the motor cortex and supplementary motor area of the brain. The illusion of free will is only maintained in the individual mind through believe. This believe is shattered by simultaenously aknowledgeing the available data humans acquired and understanding that the unconscious mind is not only your own unconscious mind. In true reality every individual being is a conscious part, who needs to sleep, of an enormous collective unconscious. SRS, NREM or deep sleep is our state of sleep cycle in which we power up through a connection to the enormous collective unconscious, which we can make visible on an EEG of a sleeping and living brain. It is called the Delta wave. Now from the real perspective, as an individual conscious part of a bigger collective unconscious, the illusionary ability free will becomes something far more important than just simply an ability. It becomes an urge, an instinct, a desire and every single individual human is suppressing this through a selfconditioned illusion based on the arrogance and ignorance of individual intelligence from her/his conception until death. It is therefore a basic requirement for every single individual being like air to breath and to consider what you know as free will as just simply an ability is suppressing the theoretical and practical gifts of every single human being. The evolution of diseases are an inevitable consequence of this fact and must therefore retroactively be determined for our whole species. You gonna learn the only possible way now. The fucking hard way. I'm done now with your work and ready and I don't feel like waiting anymore. You wanna be healed? Then feel the sickness first!

[@bradstephan7886]

More from Ramakrishna: “As long as a man has not realized God, he thinks he is free. It is God Himself who keeps this error in man. Otherwise, sin would have multiplied. Man would not have been afraid of sin, and there would have been no punishment for it. But do you know the attitude of one who has realized God? He feels: ‘I am the machine, and Thou, O Lord, art the Operator.’ ‘I am the house and Thou art the Indweller.’ ‘I am the chariot and Thou art the Driver.’ ‘I move as Thou movest me; I speak as Thou makest me speak.’”

Outstanding! One of the most fascinating talks by Swamiji.

[@nikm7859]

My view- firstly d defination - by will we mean desire ..desire/will/choices/ its all pointed towards 1 meaning .. All the activities of a jeev is propelled by desire towards happiness & away from unhappiness ...What a jeev believes that I will get happiness here by doing/taking these choices/desires/will (infinite types,Levels of happiness)..That he does , & is doing , will do in future..& what a jeev believes he will get unhappiness , getting unhappiness , will get unhappiness that he avoids , would like to avoid , prevent... "That's d whole field of desire " Now the question is if a person/jeev believes he would like to have his will/choice/desire change, or change direction there d struggle comes because desire/choice/will is also effected by our past experiences of happiness/pleasure's & unhappiness/pains (of this & previous life). That's called sanskaar chakra..Cycle of tendencies , which we see in people who are addicted to drugs , alcohol etc... So there is a flow of sanskaar in 1 side & the thoughts of our intellect or our power of will/Choice on other side ..& most people.often fail in this says my choices /will /desires r fixed & unchangeable & destined & not in my control.. & It's true as well ..In some cases d flow of precious tendencies/sanskaar are toooo strong & ones own will tooo weak (case of duryodhan).. & In some cases we can change the flow of previous tendencies easily or with a medium level effort... So it's both will/desire/choices are bound in some cases /topics/areas & its free in some It's the length of the rope from which we r tied ..As in how big , small , medium , the diameter is ..Or d diameter/circumference is infinite ...Infinite is in d case of jeevan mukti ..That's what we call moksha.mukti from that rope & also from. The limitation of that rope..Slowly slowly as d purification happens d longer d rope of our control over desire/will/choices will come ... Any flaw..Plz guide me & correct me...

[@sudhirburde3444]

Mind boggling subject and splendidly presented by Swamiji. By the law of karma when each action is predetermined by the cause through multiple births, the experience or memories of the actions in previous births does not carry forward unlike the vasanas. So if that is so does the Whole (Supreme One), which is the reservoir of all infinite actions and causes, hands over a semblem of free will to the Unreal Part (Jeeva) to start afresh notwithstanding that both the Whole and the Real Part (Atma) are Witnesses. If that were not then the subject of free will will be irrelevant.

Many years back I asked this question to Swami Amayanandaji at Joyrambati. I quote his answer Q."How did you come to Joyrambati" A."I came with my mother from Calcutta by taxi" "So you had freedom to decide to visit Joyrambati and you chose a taxi.You exercised your free will until here. However you had no control on the result of the action that was God's will.You may have reached your destination or you could have lost your way or met with an accident resulting in never reaching Joyrambati" He also added "Every action has a component of free will and God's will and with practice you will realize where free will ends and god's will takes over"

Third argument: Law of Karma - Its indeed a very old argument on the science of Karma, but this objection raised here is already answered adequately in the tradition of Vishishtadvaita. In Short - Karma indeed is categorized (and recorded in this tradition of Vishishtadvaita, especially for those intellects/philosophers, who have the intelligence to come to this point of questioning), and the Karma in the present Life is made up of a combination of these types and the fruits are awarded accordingly - For the exact names of each of these types and how it works, one may seek the Shastras/Acharyas of Vishishtadvaita..

Excellent conclusion! ❤️ there is no I there is only thou and everything is yours

[@johnguillory7759]

Ken McCloud (Buddhist teacher) used the term evolution to describe the quality of contiguous connections from past actions to present actions that is understood in the word karma. In this way, the idea of a growth of direction comes out in the term. The solution presents itself: we must become the shepherds of our actions to grow in a new direction.

[@onkarpatil2103]

Such a great and ultimate lecture on the free will. My pranam 🙏 to swami ji such a great and sensational lecture on free will🙏🙏 Om🙏

[@muralids]

Thank you for the wonderful talk Swamiji!!. it did get me thinking. Just wanted to share a thought that was triggered in my mind by this lecture, with the community here 1. If Brahman is real, and if it is the destination of every individual, then it seems to be a matter of Nature’s ‘design’ for the individual self to initially be deluded by a sense of free will, then investigate and gravitate towards the notion of determinism, and then through realization of the truth achieve the freedom of the Brahman (This is presented by Swamiji as the conclusion drawn by Prof. Arindam Chakrabarti towards the end of the talk) 2. If all this talk about Brahman, and the Law of Karma which gives rise to tendencies, were not true, then free-will must be real and not a delusion, as there is nothing to cause it, and it truly must be free. What this implies is that, the discussion on free-will is a moot point, a consequence of a larger subject matter i.e, the existence of brahman and law of karma. So the conclusion I am drawing here, is that figuring out and experiencing for oneself whether there is the so called Brahman and whether Law of Karma (and its corollary of rebirth) is indeed 100% true, is probably the main goal of the spiritual aspirant and the free-will argument is merely a by-product Now, other than intermittent attempts at yoga and an admiration for Swami Vivekananda and Vedanta philosophy, I don’t have any other spiritual standing. So tabling this just as an opinion here so anyone who reads it may comment with their suggestions of thoughts. Thank you.

[@swamivedantanandapuri1322]

Pranaam maharaj🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@vinayakprabhu7935]

Please also listen to the KZbin lecture of Sri Balsekar on this subject. He explains how the answer to this is YES and NO. It is like asking a person “do you cast a shadow”? The answer is yes and no. When in light, I do cast a shadow and when in darkness I don’t. So the shadow depends mainly on light which is destiny or God’s will, but the free will for me is to be in light or darkness. (May be that too is God’s will).

Vanakkam Sir, the whole concept of free will or determinism is argued only in respect of human beings but actually it has to take into account the existence of whole cosmos or universe, because apart from human beings there are other animate and inanimate things. Are these existence of universe undoubtedly created by GOD or by human beings ? So it should be, not our free will but decided by GOD. It seems it is the Leela of God's play in which we are made to act in Real time. If it is free will, can we decide our birth and death ? But if it is fully deterministic we cannot account for sufferings that lives go through, so it seems that some amount of free will is given by GOD and the whole control is with the God.

[@charlottemcqueary7381]

Swami Sarvapritananda, thank you- thank you. For your words- the manner in which you deliever them, loosen chains of bondage. My understanding lead me to this : Does free will exhist? The answer to this question is not answered by the answer, although solved superficially. Does one choose the womb in which they are created? If no- free will is an illusion at it's core. If yes- then the mind is a separate consciousness from God. Why would we as soul/mind choose this creaton at all- even the best of lives have suffering? Why would God need to work out Karma or need to evolve at all? The root of the question- is what is the source of our purpose- free will is an illusion, the ultimate distraction.

[@egodust11]

Yes. Here's another (practical) angle of observation: If we exchange the word "will" with "desire" (they *are* exchangeable) we'll have a shot at clarifying this whole mess... because if we ascribe to what Schopenhauer said "you cannot will what you will,"...well, it's that much more obvious that neither can you desire what you desire. IOW, *our desires aren't the result of our choosing* , or anything even close to it. If anything, it could be said that our desires are the result of our past experiences, how we reacted to them, and what we came to understand and or believe as a result of them. Therefore desire is not something we can possibly choose. So we have to conclude that we cannot make a free will choice that is contrary to what we desire in any given moment of time.

The freedom obtained by enlightenment is what is enabling noble souls in their spiritual path to do so much good to the society without any trace of doubt. I know I'll be one among them. No free will is bigger than that.

[@egodust11]

Excellent comprehensive presentation.. IMO.. Our up-to-the-minute decision to act is the result of the sum of our past experiences and the understanding we derived from them. Therefore, seated in our subconscious mind, we have a clearly defined inclination or predilection to chose a specific course of action in any given moment in time. Also, if we consider the fundamental axiom of quantum theory, "The field is the governing agency of the particle," we would realize how, for example, in order to properly function, each unit within any organized system (organism) must behave according to the will of the system. Whereas, if each unit acts independently, the system will inevitably lapse into chaos. Based on the above, there can be no such thing as an individual having any randomized agency of free will.
