Fate and Destiny.

Nought/ Naught

शून्य 

Destiny or Fate is, 

The Consequential, 

That is perceived in the mind, 

As a form of the "known",

That happens or appears to happen,

That may happen or may appear to happen,

In the sphere of "Time", 

That happens or appears to happen,

That may happen or may appear to happen, as 

An event that takes place or appears to take place simultaneously with  assumed "Time".

The two are inter-dependent and none of the two could take place in the absence of the other.

Obviously,  there is the "observer" who claims to observe this happening.

The event or this "happening" is neither real or unreal, but is the undisputed and undeniable evidence of the reality of the "observer".

The event is in Time, and Time is in the event, though the "observer" is never a part or subject of Time.

All happening could be attributed to the another that is supposed to have taken place in the assumed "past".

So the supposed "past" generates in the thought a "present" one.

And the "present" one gives rise to yet one, that could be thought of in the form of a happening in the assumed "future".

This "past", "future" and the "present" that is the the "now", independent of the two, is again (wrongly) thought of as the assumed movement of "Time", though in reality, they are not!

What about the "observer"?

Is the "observer" subject to this assumed "past","future" or the "present"?

Does this movement of "Time" affect the "observer" or, 

Does this "observer" affect the " Time"?

Does this "observer" affect The "past", "the "future" or the assumed "present", - the totality of the "observed" in any way?

Obviously the movement of the "Time" has nothing to do with the status of the "observer".

What again then could be referred to as the "Destiny" or the "Fate"?

The "observer" is in no way related to the "Time", to Destiny or to Fate. 

What about the sense of "I"; that appears and disappears repeatedly again and again in a body-mind existence?

Isn't this sense of "I" a conjured up vain  idea only and has no valid and legitimate evidence any, either to substantiate or to prove it's reality?

As such this idea itself is the "observed" on one hand and the wrongly identified - the "observer" also, on the other hand.

Unless and until - the validity of this idea of "oneself" as a person is not examined, doubted, and enquired into, it covers up the field of attention and one is caught in the trap of ignorance about the Reality / true nature of the "observer" who is ever so free from all dualities like "Time and Space", the "Thinker" and the "Thought", the "Experiencer" and the "Experienced".

So, let's ask again :

What is Destiny or Fate, and exactly who is a victim of this concept of the Destiny and Fate? 

Of course, the body and mind could go through all their respective functions so long as they are alive, but the "person" who appeares and disappears during and through this happening, - what is otherwise referred to as the Destiny  or the Fate, has no existence whatsoever in Reality.

Being keenly aware of this whole drama is freedom from the Destiny or the Fate.
