Free Will

[Guest guest]

A quotation from Swami Vivekananda on " free will " in the Hindu tradition.

 

 

" Therefore we see at once that there cannot be any such thing as

free-will; the very words are a contradiction, because will is what we

know, and everything that we know is within our universe, and

everything within our universe is moulded by conditions of time, space

and causality. ... To acquire freedom we have to get beyond the

limitations of this universe; it cannot be found here. "
