Conversations With Mitr - Part 2

Here, we continue the discussion from yesterday's post.

Mitr:
Destiny created mind and then Destiny still wins over the mind. So its like I don’t know who wins at the end.


Dipa:
Explain this which you wrote further: "Destiny created mind and then Destiny still wins over the mind So its like I don’t know who wins at the end."


Mitr:
"Destiny created mind but destiny still wins over the mind. So at the end I don’t know who wins." Our mind is given to us by Destiny but the destiny still has majority of control.

We think that mind is our friend and we own it and control destiny with it. So is the battle between mind and the destiny and I don’t know who wins the battle!

Is it I winning the battle or the mind winning the battle, who is the projection of destiny or I am just a puppet and I think I am dancing to the tune I like. Or that the tune is impregnated with my liking by the destiny in mind so I like the tune and dance to it to claim that I do it.

But then where is my free will and return with the free will.


Confused? I shall reveal the answer tomorrow. It is long, hence the reason to shorten these posts! However, your thoughts on this are most appreciated!

Destiny is God. SIMPLE. We have no control. We think we have control because we have the mind. But even the mind has been created by Destiny.

Think about Artificial Intelligence. They have to be created and programmed first by Man, and then these machines we act accordingly, based on what they have learnt. So, if the initial 'intelligence' given to these machines are from Man, how can we say that it is true AI?

In the same way, how can we say that we are controlling our own minds?
