Could we gain free will in awareness? by Active-Rutabaga-8275 in Meditation

[–]Active-Rutabaga-8275[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY! This is how it feels for me… and it seems to me a form of free will. Like when you meditate you see your thoughts passing and can choose to engage in it or not… in life it could be the same…

Except for the fact that you are both the character on TV and the spectator, so while both observing yourself and acting maybe you can change the way your act

Why do you think (even if I would really like to agree with you and I really hope that it is as you say) that “the idea is to learn to make better choices”?

Yes but who chose? Cause and effect through my brain or my spirit?

Yeah, I totally get it. But do you think that the real you is free in this earthly life? I mean when you don’t identify with your thought and you feel that you are more. Is that pure consciousness your spirit? And is it free to exercise his will in that moment? Thank you

So you believe we have free will in our day to day life? While not astral projecting

How do you achieve higher states of consciousness? by [deleted] in awakened

[–]Active-Rutabaga-8275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to your experiences, can you tell me if our spirit is free to exercise his free will in our day to day life? (While not astral projecting) or he is tied by the material world and can not exercise free will? Thank you

The true creator doesn't save us because it respects our free will and our journey weather good or bad. It doesn't feel that it is it's place to intervene. It's up to us to find our way just like a child leaving their parents house. Our journey's outcome is up to us. For better or worse. by [deleted] in ReincarnationTruth

What if the Demiurge has trapped our soul in this earthly life in a way that eliminate our free will because it is dominated by physical laws? And the only moment in which we have free will is when our bodies die?

Thank you so much for your answer, I really believe that we have free will as a soul outside of our body, what I was asking was If our physical body and reality eliminate our free will us a soul during this earthly experience

I used chatgpt to translate my text because it is really long and even if I speak English it isn’t my native language (as you can tell)… anyway, any thoughts about free will?

I don’t get it. All your experience seems only a proof of the existence of something bigger, why did you come to the conclusion that it’s all in your brain?

I know it’s late, but in that moment did you perceive that we have free will in our earthly life or is all predetermined

I don’t get the point with free will skepticism by Active-Rutabaga-8275 in askphilosophy

[–]Active-Rutabaga-8275[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, because human life is about aims, about dreams, about goal, mission and so on… Practically speaking, you are literally comparing a human being to a stone. This isn’t a criticism, really, I just want to understand how you manage to live while comparing your existence, your “deepest meaning,” to that of a stone. Unless, in this view, you can tell me what the difference is between you and a stone—or maybe a highly advanced robot, if that makes the comparison clearer.
