I was waiting for you to say that RS and now I can assert there can be some level of freewill if you create your own causality.
I say some level of freewill obviously because any causality you choose to create will be at effect of some previous cause. You should read my book about the Law Of Attraction ( http://thelogicofattraction.com) While it has nothing to do with Advaita and predates my interest in it, in the last chapter I suggest that it is not that people create the circumstances to attract the things they want into their lives, more that they already had some sense of that thing in the past, loved it and are attracted to the sense of love. In a nutshell what we think of as the cause for things we wish for (the law of attraction) coming into our lives has nothing to do with it. The wish was simply the effect of a previous cause and as there are so many causes in life we don't remember that when we were five a red Ferrari passed in the street and we thought "I'll have one of those when I grow up" or "I'll never have one of those" etc etc Thoughts become things? Perhaps that needs to be updated Thoughts AND things are effects of prior thoughts and causes? The simple version however usually suffices Dr Leonard Orr's postulate what the thinker thinks the prover proves rings true Disprove it at your own peril :) On 14 April 2011 12:02, roomsearching <[email protected]> wrote: > yeah. but the decision itself is a result of an urge from your body to > remove the shit out. > You did not freely decide it. > Everything that happens is already a reaction to previous causation. > > On Thu, Apr 14, 2011 at 9:36 AM, godszen <[email protected]> wrote: > >> roomsearching wrote: >> > There is absolutely no God or free will involved in you taking a dump >> > everyday....... >> >> free will is the decision to take a dump on the floor >> or walk into the bathroom and sit on the toilet.... > > >
