This entire lesson blew my mind! I used to be so afraid of the idea of no free will, but now I see where the scientific arguments lack and how our true free will makes so much more sense than what I imagined things to be like. Understanding that I have this point in the heart that has been awakened, and how becoming more like the Creator can bring true free will is actually freeing!
True freedom is when we can liberate ourselves from purely ego based needs and can instead focus on benefiting the other and nature because we are all interconnected and are sustained by the Creator.
I think what makes it difficult for many of us to agree with the study is because of what we see in the world around us. It does not seem as if people inherently act this way from a first impression of society.
Hello everyone, I’m Yiskah from Florida. I am excited to take this course and learn more about connection. This is an important topic for me as I currently live in a very rural area and do not have much chance for connection with others outside of my husband and our children, so I hope that this course will inspire me to find ways to make more connections!
