Guest guest Posted July 9, 2001 Report Share Posted July 9, 2001 One more thought on free will. Assuming that any kind of will is freewill, then in buddhist terms, karma (want, suffering, dependentarising) is conditioned by will (samskara, volitional formation), inother words, intention. If there is no intention there is no karma;so if there is no will (free?), there is no determined want. I thinkin buddhism the trick is to break the link between will and want byinsight and/or mindfulness rather than messing with the link betweenfeeling and will. Just a speculative thought...Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
