Freewill

Freewill : Determinism, in the sense that human action is determined by forces independent of the will, is classed in Bsm. as an erroneous conception. It asserts that the will of man is not bound by external causes, but is free in the sense that all fetters are of man’s own making, and may be by man himself cast off. In other words; will per se is free, but is limited by the results of its own previous acts.
