Critically Thinking About Life Events And The Age Old Idea of FATE

What will happen in my life?

Ask this question to an expecting mother, "What baby you will get?".
Ask this question to an MBBS aspirant, "Will you definitely get a seat?".
Ask this question to a Fresher, "Will you get placed in that MNC?".
Ask this question to a sales man, "Will you meet the target today?".
Ask this question to a politician, "Will you win the coming election?".
Ask this question to a Fisher, "Will you get a bounty catch this time?".
Ask this question to an Actor, "Will this movie go well?".

A certain answer - "yes, I will _______" - none can give, because life events are uncertain. No man ever remains fully confident about his life. But, we all have certain dreams. To get one boy baby and next one girl baby. To get an MMBS seat and serve the nation. To get placed in an highly paying MNC. To sell all that we have. In general, a certain life to live happily. For generations, the dream for certain life never comes true.  Probably, it wont come true in any generation to come. By nature life is uncertain.

If life is uncertain, what shall we do about it? Shall we denounce family life like spiritual gurus or shall we live a wayward life like impulsive people - enjoy every moment, don't care for anything?  We all should critically think about our purpose of life. We all should pursue higher goals through higher means. But we all should understand that we are living an uncertain life.

Fate decides ultimate destiny?

If life is uncertain, who or what determines my life events - we all have this ever persistent doubt in our minds. And probably we may all have different different answers to that question. Some people believe that all that happens in their lives is a conscious decision of their own. Some people do accept whatever they encounter in life. Some people believe in FATE.

Fate believers believe that whatever happens in their life all were fixed already, because of which they take Horoscopes first and consult with a consultant when it comes to arrange marriage for their siblings. If someone young dies of fatal disease such as cancer, they invoke FATE as the reason. Many fate believers believe that getting a good job or not getting - is also according to FATE. For abrupt and fatal accidents also they invoke FATE as the reason. They believe that being born in a certain caste group is also FATE. What sibling and how many sibling they have or they will have - for all they ascribe to FATE as the controlling and commanding reason.

What do you think? Do you agree with the idea of FATE? Do you think all life events are already fixed? If we apply our mind to understand the meaning of human life in totality,  we could understand the truth about our life events. We have to think critically.

How life events occur?

At any amount of will power, you cannot stop the body from aging.
At any amount of desire, you cannot eat more than what your stomach can give in.
At any amount of will power, you cannot change the rising direction of the Sun.
At any amount of desire, you cannot eat for another person's stomach.
At any amount of will power, you cannot rise a dead man alive.
At any amount of desire, you cannot avoid death.
On observing these things, we should obviously agree that there is something called FATE which sets the limit for human endeavor. But FATE is not the reason for all.

At any moment of time, you can change the idea of how you should live -
what to eat, what to wear,
whom with to relate, what to buy,
when to consume, where to live,
how long to work, what to study,
how much to give to others, etc,.

These are actions at will. All willful actions can be changed at any moment of time. That is the choice we have by nature. But, we cannot escape from the consequences of our action. That is FATE.

Emotion and the universal law of Attraction

Emotion is essentially energy. We feel hard when harboring sorrowful thoughts, jealous,  anger, fear. But in happiness, we feel light and relaxed. Meaning each emotion has a weight and energy.

Like attracts Likes

And it is universally true with regard to feelings and thoughts that when in happiness we tend to recall the past happy events and when in sorrow, we tend to recall the past sorrowful events. Recall a sad moment on which you were singing sad movie songs sympathizing your life situation.  What we can infer from this tendency is our emotions attract similar emotions.

Thoughts become Action

As per our mental nature, we are forced to give in to our thoughts. On the conception of an idea, our mind is forced to execute it. For evidence, you want a good job and you know that you can get the desired job by only studying more. You resolve yourself to study more until you get the desired job. Hence, we can understand what thought goes in our mind, and what ideas we agree with and accept, we naturally tend to do it. Thought precedes action.

Life Events

Life events are bound within FATE but unbound by WILL. Connect with your true SELF. Love ever all. Try to  do what is good for all and to your self. Good thoughts will follow you wherever you go like your shadow. With good thoughts dawns the space for good actions. With good actions follow wonderful life experiences. Always give this world the best. Always be happy and make all people happy by your words and deeds.
