Do you believe Destiny?
In the opening scene of the Oscar winning film "Slumdog Millionaire" , a title card is presented: "Jamal Malik is one question away from winning 20 million rupees. How did he do it? (A) He cheated, (B) He's lucky, (C) He's a genius, (D) It is written
In the end the hero Jamal and his lost love meet at the railway station and they share a kiss. It is then revealed that the correct answer to the opening question is "D) it is written", implying that it is destiny.
This article is not about the movie but about destiny. Do you believe in Destiny?
It is very interesting question, if you completely believe in destiny then everything is written, when I say everything, it is each and every thing. Whatever you have or going to have, your thoughts, your emotions, your decisions , your moods, what you eat, what you do, your experience is all predetermined and it is written. You are just a one character in a movie, everything is planned, you may not be aware of that plan but everything is written, it is your Destiny.
There is another point of view, that is for those who don't believe in destiny, may be we can call them "Karma-Yogis", who believe in taking action , and whatever they have is a consequence of the actions they have taken. They believe in "Best way to predict your future is to create it", they create their own future.People who believe in destiny, keep doing their work, since whatever they do is written. They don't think much, keep doing their work and enjoy life fully. They have the experience of tremendous freedom!.
People who don't believe in destiny, keep doing their work since they know they have to create what they need. They don't think much, keep doing their work and enjoy life fully. They also have the experience of tremendous freedom!.
There are many who sometime believe in destiny and sometimes not, they are the ones who have lot of stress, confusion. They are not in action, they have fear of consequence.
So, either you believe in destiny or not, it does not matter. What matters is, you having the freedom.

Yes, I believe in destiny. But do not believe in the permanence of destiny. I believe destiny can be changed but it will take a lot more effort than usual. We see in life, success comes very easily to some and after a long uphill battle for others. That is the power of destiny. I believe, nothing is unachievable. One can even defeat death but destiny sets up hurdles that prove too much for most of us that we succumb to what destiny has in store for us. This is what I believe.
