Predestination vs Self-Determination

Share the Story


Hi there. This is my first blog post. I look at the world from a dualistic perspective. Dualities run through my entire life. They allow me to make life manageable by reducing all things to two things. What it is and what it can be. This is something I can react to. I’m starting to see it’s important to be proactive towards these things. This is what gives me a semblance of control over my life, death and beyond, and perhaps even the key to the reality I seek. I can make sense of my world when I do this. I reduce everything that stands to impact my life to a duality. Duality boils down to choice. It can be one way or the other. You make your choice, act if need be, and move on.

Predestination and self-determination are something I regard as a duality. Either the world already has a plan and we’re making our way towards it, or we determine where we’ll take this world. Right now, I have to say my life is predetermined, and it’s not the predestination promised by God. It’s a predestination created by the directives of our accepted institutions which have reached global consequences. How can I enact my self-determination when all these intrusions like pandemics and recessions are if not determining, directly influencing my ability to forge my determined path?

I think I can at least understand where my self-determination lies and how to empower it. There’s a future where the dynamic of predestination and self-determination is understood. A time and a place where we understand the duality and how we can exist in a predetermined world that we forge ourselves. If you believe in duality, predestination and self-determination are tow halves of the same coin. Both live within us.

We can find that future world right now. At this moment in history, science can give you a pretty accurate understanding of what’s about to happen. We are living in the age of truth. Today we can find truth very quickly by narrowing our questions down to yes or no outcomes and then asking the same question millions or billions of times. With a computer, it’s an easy thing to do, and we get a very accurate understanding of a specific aspect in relation to the larger dynamic. From this, we can paint an entire landscape predicted by the individual knowns we have sampled within our object of interest. This creates a very accurate model of a predictable future.

We are building predictive models that come out of the truths of big numbers. From the models we see even our most modest environmental goals will not be reached. We now know with certainty, life may not even be worth living in the year 2030. We will experience ever increasing poverty, disease, and horrific ecological disruptions. If we live, we will have lost everything that matters. Survival will be our only focus. Finding the greatness of our human spirit will be a lost potential.

The economy parallels the environment. In a lot of ways they’re interconnected, but the most notable thing about the economy is it’s extremely out of balance right now. The trajectory points to increasing imbalance if things continue unopposed. If nothing changes, more extreme poverty will be heaped onto our already desperate existence cause by the environment.

What about democracy? Will we still have rights and freedoms? Things are not looking good here either. Two of the three superpowers do not believe in the democratic process. Their current geopolitical posturing indicates they believe they are in a position to challenge democracy. Russia is in the process of invading Ukraine right now. China just assimilated Hong Kong, is eyeing Taiwan, and is colonizing a number of nations through debt obligation. In this struggle, the outcome for all of us will be democracy or totalitarian rule.

While we wait for these things to get here one way or the other, you and I are going to experience increasing upsets to our lives. I was reading a news article today about Lithuania, snubbing China by recognizing Taiwan as a trade partner. For this indiscretion, China’s reaction was to remove Lithuania from it’s customs register. As a result, if Lithuania tries to sell something to China, it is not possible to even get the goods past the border. In the eyes of China, Lithuania does not exist.

In the article, they spoke with some of the Lithuanian exporters who had been affected by the immediate closure of China’s borders. A guy who sells lumber said, ‘You know first it was the economic crisis, then the Pandemic, and now this’. He lost 14 million dollars of annual trade overnight.

This is what’s happening to all of us. Non-ending interruptions you and I can expect as we proceed into the future. One thing after another, and sometimes everything all at once. Now, they’re saying gas prices will go through the roof because of the war in Ukraine. We’ve been through the economic crisis, the Pandemic, and now this, that or the other. This is the trajectory the world is on right now. We’re all getting hit by one thing after another, and we all can relate to the Lithuanian lumberman, who has now probably lost trade to Ukraine as well. It just goes on and on, and it’s taking us towards a final outcome.

2030 hasn’t happened yet. There is time between then and now, and there’s always potential for other realities to find ourselves in. The current trajectory however, which by default becomes the predictable outcome, is increasingly pointing to a world of destruction. The only thing we have between now and these negative future outcomes is time. We have a small amount of time to change the way things end up.

I don’t believe we’re going to experience all the destruction promised by current trajectories. I think we’re going to decide to opt out of all of the misery. There is a very compelling argument that reality can be one thing or the other. At it’s most elemental level, nature has shown us how this works. All matter, such as the ground we stand on, does not have to be solid at all. It can be a wave, void of solid form, and it turns out, it all depends on the way you look at it.

This is important to me. This fundamental duality in nature provides reality based on choice. Where nature begins, everything can be one thing or the other, and it all depends on the way you choose to look at it. In other words, it all depends on choice.

All things can be seen one way or the other, and will eventually end up one way or the other. They present as opposite realities, and will be seen differently when looked at from different perspectives. A good example of this is the COVID vaccine. It’s the same thing, but one group sees it as life saving, while the other sees it as the exact opposite. The only thing that’s changes between the two groups is their perspective. It’s not coincidence these perspectives are opposing. When we change our perspective, we change our reality to the complete opposite of what it was before. We adopt a belief.

Shortly after discovering the particle/wave duality, we also discovered nature knows which manifestation we would like to observe before we do. The particle has an unexplained preexisting awareness. This is called retrocausality. When this happens, the effect precedes the cause. The touchdown comes before the quarterback throws the ball. In a way, it diminishes human autonomy, or self-determination.

It’s there though. There’s an element of predestination in the particle/wave duality. With us humans, expectation and action produces an outcome. With the process driven logic found in the particle, it knows the outcome and makes it a reality. Still, this predetermined process manages to build in an element of choice. The very process creates space and time between knowing the outcome, and the outcome arriving. There’s lag time here, and the only thing it can be filled with is choice and a change in actions. Knowing the effect will absolutely influence subsequent actions. The time between knowing the future and experiencing the future is an action moment. It’s the time to make change, and there will never be another time again to do it. When you recognize the outcome is imminent, you’re in retrocausality time. A state of perpetual action and change during the event horizon of an outcome. Within this time frame, you have the potential to alter an outcome to the one of your choosing.

Every day we implement billions of our own acts of retrocausality. We know with a high degree of certainty the predictable outcome, and we direct our actions to achieve the desired expectation. We look at the trajectory of the thing. Trajectory involves momentum and direction. This is produced by repetitive patterns that create a history. Looking at the repetitive patterns and the predictive results they foretell, produces foreknowledge on what will occur if nothing changes, and from this an alternative expectation will be recognized. The outcome will either be a repeat of the same predictable thing, or we can intervene and change it. The predictable or the alternative to the predictable. These are the two choices in all things.

The opposite of an uncontrollably destructive environment is a managed prolific environment. The opposite of an unjust exclusive economy, is one with rules of distribution, inclusion, and fairness. The opposite of war is peace. There’s always an alternative to be found.

When we look at the patterns of future things, we can identify oppositional outcomes. We can see the way things will end, and this presents us with the alternative. Both are actual realities. When we get there, the reality will be one way or the other. We can choose the same old, or act to create the new possibility. As soon as you recognize something, it becomes something. It will have two potentials. The one where it’s repetitive patterns are taking it, and the one it ends up as, because you got involved in it’s outcome.

I can apply the logic of two potentials to anything I identify. I can apply it to myself, I can apply it to you. I can apply it to myself in relation to you. I can apply it to any dynamic I recognize, and approach it with the understanding that there are two realities to be found. I then have influence and greater control over my reality, because I can consciously choose which one I will act to bring about.

When I look at my relationship with you, I see you in two ways. Sometimes I see you as someone other than me, and I act alone and in accord with my beliefs, wants and needs. Sometimes, I see you from the other perspective. I see you and I as beings who have a connection, and together we’re something greater than what’s possible on my own. We share space and time; abstract thinking; common needs and hopes. We share in something innate, common and collective. We share in the spectacular potential of kinship found within an abstract, evolving species.

By applying the logic of duality, I can see myself alone in this world, but also as one connected with the collective consciousness. Both are realities, and I can jump from one state of awareness to the other. When my focus is placed on the common good, I’m acting in the collective consciousness state of my being. I might be developing an opinion, or speaking out about something. If others are doing the same thing, something will come out of it. An overwhelming wave of opinion will descend on the issue, and it will spark action and correction. This connection is real, and when it’s engaged, it is like a current running through us.

We know when this is happening. Our beliefs align. We move in unison, and produce an overwhelming response to an abuse. We form a new and unbreakable connection that changes the rules completely. This is the Wisdom of the Crowd engaged and about to make a difference.

The Wisdom of the Crowd is a real thing. It’s been proven that if you ask 1000 people the same question, they will always come within a very close margin of error, to the correct answer. They will be close enough that they’re right, and this is a diminishing margin of error. When you ask 1000 people to guess how many jelly beans are in the jar, the collective answer will be within something like 5% of the correct number, every time. If we ask the same question to a billion people, we will reach a margin of error reflective of absolute certainty and correctness every single time.

When we think and act together, we get it right. This is something we are doing right now. We’re not waiting for someone to ask us to guess on something. We’re just doing it on our own whenever a common issue comes up. We did it at the ‘Me Too’ Movement. Everyone showed up to that. We did it at times during the Pandemic. It happened in the financial world as well. Everyday, we’re seeing this emerging side of our species, from new angles. We’re becoming aware of our collective consciousness. We can see it in motion, and each time it appears, we learn more of it’s power and grace, and a little bit more about ourselves as well.

In my world, we will come to use the Wisdom of the Crowd to manage global issues that require consensus. As individuals we will act conscientiously and rightfully as someone vested in world outcomes. We’re going to do this by capitalizing on the Wisdom of the Crowd. Individually, we are going to look more closely at important issues like the environment, and set the Wisdom of the Crowd in motion. We are going to bring the Wisdom of the Crowd to every issue that is impacting our common welfare. We will see how Putin’s war is absolutely destroying any chance of us creating a regenerative world, and we’ll turn our attention there too. Wherever we go, our bond will be so strong that nothing can break it. No ideology, no nation. Nothing. Nothing can break the bond of the people acting in unison.

This is where I see us in the year 2030. I believe collectively, we will come to the conclusion there is only one game in town. We are here for a purpose. We are the builders of reality, and when we work together, the results are much, much greater. I think by 2030, we figured this out, and are creating a life of extreme harmony and joy. All the perks of space and time will have been satisfied, and in our new found greatness we will finally find peace. Peace from everything. No more worry or torment. It looks to me like this is the alternative to where we’re headed now.

I believe this is predestined. It’s meant to be. It represents an evolution of our species and souls. We are in the midst of a transcendental moment. Nothing can stop the creeping movement of evolution, and now it’s time for an evolutionary change.

Retrocausality time is a real thing. It’s the choice between outcomes. This is where you can decide not to live in a predestined world and one built upon self-determination. The choice is yours. It’s a duality. You can choose to get involved in your fate, or you can let it ride.
