Destiny, Fate, Faith and Choice

Ever since the earliest times of recorded human history , the transitions from darkness into the dawn of civilization created a godless type of religious fervor, later called superstition.

Spread by word-of-mouth by the naïve and the ignorant, then by star worshipers, astrology and pre-destiny were born.

Countless generations have come and gone. Fanatical fears, doubts, worries, uncertainties validated “fate”…especially after man created God in his own image, to whom to speak, to question, to blame, to ask for favors and miracles.

This event made it simple to shrug personal responsibilities and shift blame…Something “bad” happens: “it was fated!…God’s will!... destiny!”…not to be questioned, resisted or countered with one’s own dynamic actions…

Then, with the advent of psychology, parapsychology, self-hypnosis, New Age thinking…:”choice” was born.

Wise sayings like “God helps those who help themselves”, Positive Thinking, the right and duty to make one’s own choices for one’s own life... and more controversial concepts steadily exposed traditional beliefs to more revolutionary ones.

Gradually superimposing seemingly daring behavioral trends emerged. Such as the individuals’ ability to decide for themselves the direction of the desired or preferred pathways to independently follow if they are to improve their own future and the quality of their life… Choice.

This attitude involves and requires the need to make changes. As I touched on in a recent post, “Change” can be a scary, difficult process which renders the doer uncomfortable and stressed. This is essentially psychological..emotional.

For, especially to the ultra-religious, the fanatical, superstitious, fearful of repercussions and all sorts of punishments from Above, this sort of gutsy behavior resembles sacrilegious offenses . Their minds become somewhat confused, angry, resentful towards those they accuse of being disrespectful sinners...unfaithful and disloyal to God.

During my Seminars Trainings, I always mention that , as a scientist, the more I study the physiology of the human brain, the more I believe that God, by whatever denomination, placed a seed of Him/Her/ItSelf into each and every human Subconscious brain, to do with exactly what the possessor desires, decides and chooses. Positive or egative...to build up or destruct...to attract healing or death...

Rather than this being an affront to God (Who/What ever He/She/It Is or may be, if any), I view my Self-Hypnosis system ("Modulations"), which involves chosing, deciding and dynamically causing desired actions to materialize, as being the strongest possible acknowledgement of Faith and Respect for the Superior Power.

What better way to confirm and prove His/Her/Its existence than make that seed manifest its powers through our enthusiastic use of it?

Far more sincere and effective than passively sitting in a Church, Temple or Synagogue, merely mouthing written, repetitious orations, more often than not mis/ununderstood by the orationers.

For, to dare utilizing my unorthodox method of acknowledging and revering a Higher Power is often rebuked by narrow-minded, bigoted classes of fundamentalists. So what?, I say.

All that matters is that this Inner “God-Power” Works…every time it is called upon with intense determination. The results of which benefits or hurts us, depending on what it is we choose to think, say or do. This does not imply that we ARE Gods... rather that we ARE equipped with many powers and divine abilities with which "to help ourSelves", as in "God Helps those who...".


The latter was recently demonstrated in my own case, I humbly brag. I am referring to the "miracle' assisted by my way to "pray" dynamically by addressing my "Inner God", which I do by practicing my "Modulations". The details of which were shared in previous posts relating to my colon cancer operation and its aftermath, just a couple of months ago.

This reduces the ancient (and ongoing traditional beliefs in) Fate and (pre)Destiny to CHOICE…

So sayeth Your Friend, who asks you to choose having a Great weekend!
