Free Will and Physical Actions
Does free will really exist? Are we slaves to a preordained destiny? These are questions that have occupied some of the greatest minds that ever lived. There are good arguments on both sides. Perhaps there never will be a correct answer but as time goes on we can get closer and closer to the truth.
I can think of at least four important factors that can be considered in this issue.
The first is the power of the human collective will and social structure. Like it or not society is greater than any individual and always will be. An individual can fight the collective will of society to a draw but they can never win. In the long run free will needs to be socially acceptable or it will encounter severe restrictions. We can't just do whatever we want without accepting the consequences of our actions. In this respect free will is tied very closely to the consequences that it brings into our lives. We would like free will without negative consequences. Sometimes this is not possible.
“As above, so below” is a metaphysical axiom that describes how the normal flow of physical events is determined by astral events. Put more simply things happen in the astral planes first before they happen at the physical level. In my own life I have experienced this through precognitive dreams to the extent that I will dream about anything significant the night before it really happens to me. I do have precognitive dreams. “As above, so below” is a valid truth in my own life. This shows that astral events precede physical events but does not deal directly with the question of free will.
Lucid dreaming has shown me it is possible to affect change within the astral planes with a resulting change of physical outcome. I will give two examples from personal experience. I used to drive a big rig and haul cars. One night on the road I dreamed about narrowly avoiding a car by hitting the brake and turning the steering wheel. It took an act of will to do this in the dream and there was considerable resistance. It was not something I just dreamed about, it was work and will being directed within the dream itself. The next day I narrowly avoided an accident with a car in a situation exactly as the dream had foretold. If I had not saved myself within the dream I would not have been able to save myself in the physical world.
In another lucid dream my feet were frozen or stuck to the ground and I could not move them. Through an act of will I fell over and by grabbing fistfulls of grass pulled myself along dragging my body and my feet into a new location. When you encounter resistance within dreams you are dealing with something that is very real and has force and energy behind it. Force of will can alter these things. This is one type of free will.
Lastly and most interesting is the power of physical activity and free will. The metaphor of a resonant circuit in electronics is very helpful in this illustration. Physical reality corresponds to the capacitive portion of the electronic circuit. The physical body and physical world can generate and store energy. The astral or non-physical planes correspond to the inductive portion of the circuit. Electronic theory tells us that altering either the capacitance or inductance will change the physical characteristics of the circuit. This is clear evidence that physical activity can make a powerful difference in the outcome.
Physical activity is closely tied to free will. An act of will and determination can change personal destiny. Physical activity can also change astral events before they become physical events. It does this through the generation of energy and injecting it into the astral where it works to alter pre-existing conditions. Hard physical effort and the generation of massive amounts of energy can alter events in the astral and change the outcome but if you wait too long no amount of physical effort is enough. “As above, so below” is a cosmic law. Events will happen in the astral before they happen in the physical world. If we wait until they are happening in the physical world it is too late to change them! They need to be changed in the astral, not in the physical world.
