Free will

Master Kosen – Published on November 10 – teaching

Question

In your teaching, you emphasize that we are completely free in our choices, and in answer to an earlier question, “What is the soul?”, you said: ”…God has already invented the scenario, and the work has already been created by him and therefore already accomplished. All that remains is for us to experience it.” In that case, I don’t really feel free!!??? Can you explain this apparent contradiction? Thank you.

Master Kosen’s answer

It concerns the nonlinear relationship between predestination and free will.
