Dilemma of choice

-

Will is free. The Creator of the universe made it free, so that each human spirit may make own choices. Will empowers man to make choices at every turn. Choice is free in every given circumstance. Even when it appears there is no choice, options are available.

 

To bring it home to my readers’ psyche, I am exercising my free will in putting what I am writing on keys of my laptop, so it may be available to all who may read the prints no matter where he or she finds it. The dilemma we face individually and in groups derive from choices made at each and every decision time. And there are millions of such options every day for any active human being.

The main point being made is that everyone is bound by his decisions and shall enjoy and suffer for each decision made, depending on whether such choice redounds into betterment or ill of each individual and the community from which that individual issues.

 

To illustrate the point, one is faced at workaday life with choice of when to wake up and how to wake up. Upon stirring awake, one may choose to look at one’s timepiece or simply linger in somnolence for a while. If one decides to get out of bed, it must be followed by a decision of what one must do first. One’s habit may be up for alteration based on one’s thoughts, words and volition the previous day or week or month or years along with their impact on one’s psyche. He may just have had an astral or earthly impression the previous night that may have bestirred his spirit and compelled him to examine a few things before leaving his bed. He might have been sold some ideas the previous day which his state of wakefulness might compel him to examine in depth. He might have had discussions with some equal or aide that influenced his undecided mind against a course of action.

 

He might have had other influences from kith and kin, from his neighbourhood, from social contacts, from family and friends. Each of these compels him to examine range of options at every point of waking up from slumber. What happens after he leaves his bed is largely conditioned by his past decisions, which has become physical forms or are developing into ethereal forms in other planes of existence awaiting maturation into physical forms.

Well, a human being is inexorably attached to their thoughts, words and volition here and hereafter as soon as one’s volition leaves its origin. A wrong mental attitude, a tendency to wrong exercise of free will, results in a journey in the wrong direction like rail lines in a national railway system. Once a decision is made, a train is boarded for definite stations with choices of directions at various nodes. Return routes are available at every station to any and everyone if one has the will to change train at available nodes.

 

One, however, runs a risk of receiving suggestions that one deserves by dint of passed decisions made. Since right and wrong decisions cannot but lead to equivalent right and wrong ends, all human beings are subject to their right and wrong decisions. No one is exempted from the fruits of one’s volition. He is bound to it by strong gossamer threads which link him with similar volition generated by other humans known or unknown to him. These gossamer threads link such human beings and shall result in physical contact with its originators, if will to change the volition is allowed to grow into deeds by their originators.

 

It is vital for all human spirits not to even contemplate negative volition for this reason. Most people are subject to dirty volition of others on this account. The whole world of billions of people is degraded from this singular reality. It is a pity that most people are not aware of the responsibility they bear for originating dirty and doom-bound thoughts and volition.

 

Many human spirits are in trouble here in Creation on account of volition introduced into creation in their past lives. They are bound to centres in creation that provide them ample opportunity to reverse their volition in previous lives by same effort of the will which is sacred to each individual, yet weighty, in determining the trajectory of each human being here in creation.

 

Stealing someone else’s child perverts the earthly opportunity, which parents and children have to help one another to extinguish past debts and wrong volitions. Such human thieves entangle themselves with the debts which such stolen babies and their parents bear. And their condition will be worse than barrenness that led them into thoughts and volitions to steal babies that had no connection with them. The guilt of child thief may not be extinguished within a few life spans, if the interruption created had humungous implications for the individuals concerned.

 

Redirecting the course of a people by foisting on them a leader other than that desired by the corporate will of a people portends disaster for all parties involved. For they constitute robbers of the will of the people and shall be connected with their woes into the future. Fortunately, nothing is hidden to the universal mind firmly entrenched in God’s natural law of what one sows that he shall reap. Heavy Karma awaits all those who distort natural law for earthly gains. They shall know immense grief through various spans of worthless existence until they earn total denial of conscious existence in God’s creation.

 

The degeneration of the world is on the fast lane to doom for current humanity. All humans are to blame. Those who stand by and accept evil are as much to blame as those who shut their eyes and do nothing when evil occupies the driver’s seat of communal will. Danger lies ahead and nothing can ameliorate that trend, save a total change of direction among its originators. This is an arduous task to contemplate. It was better that each and everyone should be fully aware of the burden each bears by making wrong decisions, no matter how apparently trite. For no one can escape his or her own thoughts, words, deeds and volitions planted here in creation.
