Hi,
I believe that for my entire life I am bound to being mind substance, that is, that everything that I will ever think or feel is subject to being imaginary. I also believe that we are all one single consciousness field that is knowing itself from all perspectives possible within the infinity of that consciousness field, and this field is God. I also believe that the world is deterministic and causation prevents us from having free will.
This is bothering me, because it seems to me, this higher consciousness that we are, has decided to imagine the laws of nature and causality. Now, because this higher consciousness is imagining so, we the finite consciousness are bound to being in this deterministic world.
Now, the finite parts of consciousness are the whole itself. Higher consciousness has a will, and his will is to imagine a deterministic and materialistic reality.
The paradox I see is that we are using our free will to imagine a world where there is no free will. So we are in fact in both states at the same time, we both have and haven't free will.
Someone has more insights into this? Is my reasoning flawed?
