We are
supposed to be FREE individuals. My question here is ARE WE REALLY FREE? When I
look at life I see nothing but beliefs and more beliefs - some inherited, some
acquired, some conveniently or inconveniently crafted. And then we say we are
FREE. I think yes we are free, but free to choose either from already existing
beliefs or to define a supposedly new belief. I don't know I don't have
answers, I just have questions. You are FREE to believe or not to, but still I
am apprehensive how many beliefs will be playing with your supposed FREEDOM.
- Are we free not to
believe? Can we exist without believing?
- Are we made to believe
in everything? Is there any other thing in life other than beliefs?
- Are we really
free? What is freedom, if it exists? Can we ever think freely?
- Freedom
- a choice or just a fantasy?
- What
is thinking? How do we think? Are we free to think or create? What governs
thinking? A mere electrical chemical reaction occurring in the
brain- is that all about thinking? Is it possible to influence thinking in
any way? Psychic experiences. mind reading, subconscious, ego what are
they- literary jargons ingrained in our brain or layers of self?
- How do we learn? Is
there any shortcut to learning? Can we unlearn?
- How and why feelings impact thinking and vice versa?
- Are there rules and
laws which governs the inner world as they appear to govern physical
world? Are there underlying principles that governs life?
- Is this world real or
a mere reflection of universal chaos? Are we the product of mere
mathematical inconsistency?
- Does life follow any
universal equation? Can such equation ever exist?
- Is life a chanced
occurring? Are we the trivial solutions of probabilities?
- Why
do we exist? Is there some innate purpose of life?
- What
is to be done? Why?
- Why
do we need to follow social and moral codes that we are subjected to? Is
it necessary? What impact virtues have on life? Culture, nation,
values, family - Are these things indispensable?
- Does
GOD exist? Why do we need to believe in GOD?
- What
is self? Is it again a belief?
- What
is religion? Isn't it a product of human deliberation and conscious effort
to chain the psychology?
- Is
there any life after death?
After
all, We all live in a FREE world, isn't it?
