What is the concept of free will?

The Universe is not only totally equitable, it does not judge or make decisions on your behalf.

You are in charge, you are the boss, the kingpin, the ruler of your own experience and the Universe cannot and will not do anything contrary to that unalterable fact.

Without this neutral response from the Universe, you would not have true free will. So which is it? Do you have free will or do you not? It cannot be both.

You cannot be both the creator of your destiny and simultaneously subject to the will of another.

The one defies the other. Free will is the basis upon which there is growth, evolution and experience in the Universe. 

Without it, all future would be predetermined and every soul would merely be a puppet in a grand theatre.

You may have what you want and do what you want and be who you want to be. You have extended yourself into physical reality, not to prove yourself worthy of a higher authority, but to add to your uniqueness and beingness through the experience of creating in this reality.
