The goat thinks it is free and moves about munching grass near the post - and yet the freedom is only apparent. In the same way we all go about thinking we have 'free will' and yet we only operate within a limited circle. If the illusion of 'free will' is taken away we may lose all interest in life! jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However those who have subtle desires to help others..are sent back to earth by god as prophets. There are thus no two free wills at the highest levesl of consciousness... be it shiva loka, or vishnu loka with love Aum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
