ra has something good to say here:

free will does not allow, nor would predetermination disallow. rather the law of confusion offers a free reach for the energies of each mind/body/spirit complex. the verb, to allow, would be considered pejorative in that it suggests a polarity between right and wrong or allowed and not allowed.

the paradox here is that we perceive that our ego does not have full free will over everything.

the piano falls on our head, and our ego says, "i did not want that!"

what this is, however, is a very sophisticated trick of the creator.

picture this: you are god. only you exist. you are omnipotent and infinite. you decide you want to write a stageplay just like on broadway. you divide yourself and invent the concept called free will, saying each piece of yourself has free reach to experience whatever each piece wants.

it's just an illusion! there really isn't free will, because it's all just god. how can anything have free will if it's just god?

so now you have a universe with free will, and one day you are observing your universe, and you come up with the most dastardly idea. the very thought of it makes you smirk like an evil genius, like the grinch when he comes up with a plan.

you (god) decide to create a world within your world that is specifically designed to trick the inhabitants into thinking they don't have free will.

so on one hand, you created the illusion of free will. and then out of a sick sense of humour, within that illusion, you created an illusion of the lack of free will.

so now you have humans on earth who don't believe they have free will, and yet they really do since they exist in an illusion where free will is the supreme law. and yet they really don't because that law itself is ultimately just illusion!

how devious! how wicked!

god laughed long and hard when he came up with that trick. and then he divided himself up into smaller parts and sent those smaller parts into the little house of mirrors to see what would happen. he really is just a kid playing with anthills isn't he?
