Anil Kumar Questions and
Answers
Question 1
Do We Have
Free Will or Not? (22.09.2002)
“Do we have free will or not?” That
question was given to me.
The answer is simple. As I told you
before and I repeat here, all the answers are from Sai literature
only. What did He say? “You don’t have free will!”
Straight! God does not mince words.
There is no ambiguity; it is straight!
“Why not?” we question again!
The answer is simple: You are not
free, so how can you have free will? Am I not free? Yes, I am not
free! Why not? We see what we should not see. We hear what we are
not supposed to hear. We do what we should not do. When we are a
slave to our senses, when we are a slave to our mind, when we are
chained, when we are imprisoned, when we are in a cell, we are not
free! How can there be a question of free will? Utter nonsense! To
be free, first we have to have free will. Oh I see! Will you show
me one person who has free will?
The straight answer - God has free
will! He is totally free! Therefore, His Will will happen!
Bhagavan gave this example to the
question of free will: “If the left part of your body is
paralysed, you cannot move the paralysed part.”
All right, you have free will, come on and lift
it! No free will! You have a will; that is all! But, you are not
free! You cannot lift that paralysed part. Therefore, you have no
free will!
