I honestly believe that people who say its not set in stone do it to ease their minds and make them feel in control.

how does this help people to feel in control?
How does it not?

But its not like we read a book and know whats going to happen. Believing that everything that happens happens for a reasons shouldn't stop someone from purposing what they want with all their might!

Who said this anyway? What source does your information come through?
Source? what are you talking about? I don't even know what to say?

your 1st part of post (feeling in control). I'm thinking it depends on how the individual see this "set in stone" notion. Its a percentage game....some would want to believe that it being set in stone gives them the option of feeling its all controlled. The other side would see 'not set in stone' as giving them the option of free-will. Then there's a 3rd side who believe its nothing to do with either.

The 2nd part of your post (believing that everything that happens happens for a reason).....my comment was referring to whose source says everything happens for a reason? Not everyone believes that.

Hope that helps some?

I like that astoboy, but we have to be careful because we can't change illusion, there's nothing to change, and who is going to change it.

Yes, that's true, it does depend on the individuals view. But just like anything else, if you aren't stuck to one option and you can create what you want (free will) you are in control of where your life leads. But some would look at it more negatively.

Believing that everything happens for a reason. I wasn't stating it as a fact. I was saying that if someone is to believe this or for those who don't want to because they feel like they feel like they are heading down a preconceived path and have no control, it doesn't mean you can't take your life in the direction you want it.

By the way, I was never preaching that there is no time or that it is an illusion. That theory was where I got this other idea. It was a type of lead in or basis. If this than that.

The answer lies in the Law of Relativity.

It is changing, that's the main thing.

Yeah... helps to see it is what you really believe and not what you believe about it.

You mean illusion is changing
therefore to change illusion is to
either, come to reality or get indulged into its snares?
