Otherwise the whole theory of karma is meaningless if "everything" is predetermined .

If you ask me, that's the not only thing that is meaningless.

Something like the pic below: for every divergent path there is an equallly opposite, counter and divergent path. It is our free will to diverge more and more, as much as we want, but our divergence creates some more counter paths and in the end paths meet to cancel out each other.

I think that's how the brain operates anyway. A choice is made the second (or millisecond) an option is presented. Later it's all about rationalizing that choice.

Agreed , but that is perhaps B coz we havent yet discovered the meaning or purpose behind it all.

Thanks!, it was interesting.

@Summerji: you said something about infinite.

It appears that in Maths there are trans-infinite types of infinities.

With infinity_1 < inifinity_2 < ......

Sometimes mapping Maths with reality is a difficult thing.

Irrespective of whether there is a God or not, irrespective of whether we have freewill or not, irrespective of whether consciousness is observing itself or not, irrespective of whether this is a deterministic or an in-deterministic or a mixed mode universe, irrespective of whether good karma or bad karma plays a role in our lives, irrespective of anything for that matter, it looks like we will have to grind it out...

If only you stop jumping around like a cat on a hot tin roof, we could have some interesting conversations on some of the threads here. What say?

A thought in its initial form could be formless and timeless. Just like a photon. Is photon a wave? No Is a photon a particle? No. Just like a photon, a thought is something that is both and much more.

However, it needs some objective form to materialize itself.

OK, someone summarize what has been said here. I am not going through 8 pages of philosophy.
