FREE WILL DOWN THE BIN

It is true that each man's life time even when summed up together shall not stand a chance against the swags of time.Humans were, are and will be in this world running for the mockeries of destructible genuity. The question whether individual will is superimposed over the society or vice-versa has not yet been answered with a definitive understanding.In a way each one of us are limited by our own thoughts and we ought to see the world through our own eyes and accumulated wisdom.In this context, where does concept of free will claim importance.?

The human body is a microcosm and each cell divides, dies and rejuvenates to carry our functional being as a whole.We are pieces of cells stitched together to give a mirage appearance to some distant alien Gods/species.We are the living example of "Leucochloridium paradoxum", a synthesis of pretended free will made into action via an unknown parasite.(google to read more).In a very similar way, humans are dictated by the whims and fancies of unknown evolvement.At the end when the species approach extinction, one shall realise that the whole concept of free will is an exaggerated lie of intellectual masturbation.

So,is nihilism an undisputed philosophy which gets opposed because of our lack of will? In a way, yes,but simply adhering to Charvaka's hedonism leaves us little or no space to understand or explore our Universe.However,a single ego is an absurdly narrow vantage from which to view the life's experience.When it is mandated to consider one's individual relationship with the Universe,it also becomes fundamental in contemplating one's own relationship with the various shades of one's own self.Hence as John Stuart Mill says," In all intellectual debates,both sides tend to be correct in what they affirm and wrong in what they deny".Therefore,in all affairs it's a healthy thing to hang a question mark on the things you have long taken for granted.
