Does fate exist
The topic of our departure from life is one of the most mysterious and sacred. For many centuries, humanity has tried to comprehend this secret. Does fate exist? How free are we to create our own life scenario? Can a person involuntarily or consciously draw out (“craw out”) his departure or, conversely, by an effort of will push back the fateful date?
Death is just a transition
Two dates
Psychics and magicians talk about the multivariate nature of the future and promise any development of events in their sessions. Psychologists assure us that with the help of special psychotechniques it is even possible to guess the “rainy day” and move it as far as possible.
Undoubtedly, every person has a choice of directions in which the path of life can change in one direction or the other. But... as numerous facts and ancient treatises testify, these changes concern only the basis of life and can occur within two initially programmed dates - the day of arrival into this world and the day of departure. We can influence the quality of our lives, but we cannot change the most important dates.
Researchers from Stanford (California, USA) recently completed an experiment called “Life Span”, which began... 90 years ago, in 1921. More than one and a half thousand children participated in the experiment and were monitored throughout their lives. The analysis of the results surprised the scientists. It turned out that people with a good sense of humor who had a happy childhood behind them lived, on average, shorter than others. It also turned out that love for pets, contrary to popular belief, does not prolong life. But marriage, like divorce, does not affect health in any way. Those who are loved and cared for feel happier throughout their lives, but this also does not affect its duration.
The blind clairvoyant Vanga believed that no one would escape what was prescribed by fate.
Own way
Let's turn to the great clairvoyant and soothsayer Vanga. The niece and personal biographer of the Bulgarian fortuneteller Krasimir Stoyanov in her book “Vanga: Confession of a Blind Clairvoyant” gives the following dialogue:
If it so happens that you see, with the inner vision given to you from above, an imminent misfortune or even the death of a person who has come to you, can you do something so that you can avoid misfortune?
No, neither I nor anyone else can do anything.
And if troubles, even catastrophic ones, threaten not just one person, but a group of people, an entire city, or a state, is it possible to prepare something in advance?
It's useless.
Does a person’s fate depend on his inner, moral strength, and physical abilities? Is it possible to influence fate?
It is forbidden. Everyone will go their own way, and only their own.”
Sathya Sai Baba made a mistake in predicting the date of his own death.
Gloomy visions
Some people secretly feel the approach of their death. This manifests itself differently for everyone. Someone is trying to put all their affairs in order. Someone begins to become interested in the structure of the universe, to think about the meaning of life, God, and the soul. And someone becomes despondent, loses interest in life, as if physically and psychologically preparing themselves for the transition to another form of existence.
The ability to predict one’s death is most clearly demonstrated in the works of poets and writers. Moreover, often the authors in their works not only foresaw the approach of their end, but also described in detail the circumstances of their death.
Nikolai Rubtsov predicted that he would die in winter.
Nikolai Rubtsov prophetically wrote in one of his poems:
“I will die in the Epiphany frosts,
I will die when the birches crack.”
Although nothing foreshadowed the tragedy then, he died on January 19, Epiphany.
Fyodor Sologub, in a poem in 1913, 14 years before his death, predicted to himself:
“Darkness will destroy me in December.
I will stop living in December.”
“In the midday heat in the valley of Dagestan
I lay motionless with lead in my chest.”
It happened as the poet foresaw. He died in a duel after being shot by Martynov.
And here the question remains controversial: either the writers really “saw” something from the future thanks to intuition, or, again, thanks to the gift of imagination and the ability to create their own worlds, they formed their own model of care.
In all likelihood, poets somehow gain knowledge about the future from their subconscious, listening to the inner self, which is closely connected with the Higher Mind - the repository where there are answers to all existing questions.
This fact is also surprising: many people who do not have the gift of foresight and do not know when their earthly journey will end can easily answer how this will happen.
John Lennon became a hermit shortly before his death.
And it also happens that a person is afraid of something and with his fears attracts tragic events. It was not for nothing that the ancients said: “We ourselves invite guests to the feast of our thoughts.”
The writer Venedikt Erofeev wrapped himself in scarves all his life, buttoning his collar tightly, as if he was protecting himself from a future incurable disease, which later overtook him. The writer died of throat cancer.
The legendary musician John Lennon, shortly before his death, suddenly became a hermit, hiding in his house. As if anticipating an upcoming assassination attempt, he stopped communicating with the world and stopped going out. Moreover, according to the recollections of his loved ones, he began to become interested in the topic of murder, fearfully imagining how a person feels when a bullet enters his body.
It has been noticed that people who are destined for a short life live it very brightly and fruitfully, trying to do everything in time. They say about them: they were in a hurry to live. How many brilliant poets left our world at a young age, leaving their descendants the greatest creative legacy (M.Yu. Lermontov died at the age of 26, Sergei Yesenin died at 30). While other long-lived talents began to realize their great plans only after 40-50 years. There are many artists who created their works over the age of 70. Titian painted the best paintings for almost 100 years. Verdi, Strauss and many other composers composed music until they were 80 years old.
"The time has come"
There is an assumption that our soul knows about the time allotted to us, and when this time comes, it pushes a person to a critical situation. You can recall the story of the death of the wonderful poet and singer Igor Talkov. The tragedy occurred behind the scenes of the Yubileiny Sports Palace. Singer Aziza asked Talkov, through her friend Igor Malakhov, to perform in front of her, since she did not have time to prepare. But the singer did not agree. A conflict arose, during which Talkov was killed by a pistol shot. The singer's director Valery Shlyafman was accused of unintentional murder, having tried to snatch the pistol from the hands of another person and accidentally pulled the trigger. But, as we know, there are no accidents.
According to the recollections of Talkov’s widow Tatyana, the singer never carried a weapon with him, but for some reason that day he took a gas pistol to the concert. And when a generally harmless argument flared up, he was the first to take out a weapon and start shooting in the air, thereby provoking Malakhov to grab his pistol, loaded with live ammunition. And, who knows, maybe if Talkov had not taken a weapon with him, everything would have worked out. But, most likely, the inner command of the soul worked that day - “the time has come”, and the entire subsequent scenario was built in accordance with this.
Ancient eastern texts contain knowledge that a person comes into this world precisely when the need arises for general evolutionary development, and leaves it at the hour when the mission is completed. Not earlier and not later. And it is very important to realize that death is not only inevitable and is part of the universal world order, but also that death is not the end, but a transition of consciousness to a higher spiritual level.
“Fate decreed it” is a fairly common expression. But when using it, many people do not think too much about the depth of its meaning. Is everything really predetermined from above? Does fate exist or can you change your life at will?
Many people, especially the older generation, are firmly convinced that what is written in one’s family cannot be avoided. Various religious teachings affirm the same thing: God gives each person a certain destiny at birth, within which he measures the number of trials and joys. Therefore, for believers, the question of whether fate exists is not controversial.
But atheists adhere to a completely opposite point of view, believing that only a person himself creates his own future through his actions and can change his life at any moment. Serious psychologists take a borderline position on this issue. They confirm that fate exists, but only within the framework of those ideas about it that a particular person has. That is, life in any case depends on his desires, but they can exist on a subconscious level.
And a person attracts all positive and negative phenomena into his life himself, but at the same time there is a special core - events that cannot but happen for objective reasons.
Does fate exist in love?
And one of these immutable givens is meeting a loved one. The majority of both ordinary people and psychologists are sure that the answer to the question whether it is destiny to be with a certain person can only be positive.
Only scientists are not guided by ephemeral ideas about predestination, but proceed from the premise that we can only love a person who is similar to us, as if resonating with us in the same emotional field, in other words, is on the same wavelength.

Can a person change his capabilities, manage his life, or “it’s rock”
The proverb says: “If you sow an action, you will reap a habit; if you sow a habit, you will reap a nature; if you sow a nature, you will reap a destiny.” But does fate exist, do we really only fulfill what is destined for us from above? Or are we free to build or change our lives at any moment?
Everyone knows that there are events that are beyond our control, i.e. they happen whether we want it or not... And they sometimes have a very significant impact on our lives.
We talked about karma and fate with Elena Batyr, a psychologist, shaman, psychic and healer with a rare gift of divination.
Elena, some modern psychologists argue that the concept of karma or fate is far-fetched. A person himself attracts negative or positive events. And as a result, it turns out that fate is just a sequence of human actions, which he cannot change only because he himself creates them. Is it so?
No, it's much more complicated. The fact is that every person is born at a certain time and in a certain place. As they say, “this is how the stars became.” This component of fate is unchanging, as physicists say - “static”. But there is also “dynamics”! For example, a person has lived part of his life, it is already in the past. It's like a piece has fallen off a rock. But the absence of this piece greatly affects the future of the rock as a whole.
I will give one more comparison for a simple understanding of the concept of “karma”. For example, a person is defined by the presence of arms, legs, head, smooth skin... In this, all people are similar to each other, we cannot change this. This, let’s say, is our “center”, the basis of our appearance. That is, if there is a tail, fur, it is no longer a person, it is an animal. A person cannot change the length of his arms and legs or grow fur on them, but he can change his hairstyle and dress differently. And now he is different! In other words, there is in our life both what is fatal and what we can influence.
Another comparison. Planet Earth is the center where civilization develops. First dinosaurs roamed it, then people appeared. On Earth you can live and love, fight or build, change something. Everything is born and dies, but the planet itself remains.
Fate is a sequence of human actions that he cannot and, most importantly, does not want and cannot change. Like arms and legs.
I am a hereditary shaman. And I know that according to the so-called shamanic horoscope, it is possible to determine some of the people who are not ready and are not capable of family life. For the other part of people, it makes no sense to seek great achievements at work. Such a person can be a super workaholic, but, alas, he will not achieve any particular success, no matter how you look at it.
At the same time, if a person himself is not in the mood to change anything, then nothing changes for him, even in that which is within his power to change. It is the awareness of what can and should be changed that allows you to change your life for the better. But only a specialist can tell you what can be fixed and what cannot. For example, to achieve certain successes, you can change the color of your clothes or add some additional items to your workplace. In the shamanic tradition, the color brown, for example, strengthens the element of earth. If a person was born weak, a specialist can tell you how to improve your health.

But for the modern church and believers who are accustomed to visiting church, the concept of karma is alarming and frightening. Do you think these concepts contradict Christianity?
Of course not. Karma in the Eastern sense is law. The law of karma implements the consequences of a person’s actions, both positive and negative, and thus makes him responsible for his life, for all the suffering and joy that it brings him. Karma and fate are different categories. Unfortunately, while “karma” is not always understandable, almost a foreign word. We need to calmly figure it out. For example, why do they talk about the need to keep the commandments in the church? When we keep the precepts, we improve our karma. Here Christian morality and the law of karma are one. It is very important that these observances concern not only us, but also our children! No wonder the Bible says “the sins of the fathers will fall on the children to the seventh generation...”
We often say: I don’t want my children to repeat my fate. Psychologists say that in early childhood, children adopt patterns, patterns of behavior and typical reactions to the environment from their parents. And then in the future, children, finding themselves in similar situations, react in the same way as their parents.
Indeed, in infancy, in order to survive, children are controlled by their intuition. Unconsciously, they are able to act in the same way as their parents. Remember: when you approach a sleeping baby, you hear even, even breathing. But as soon as you lean towards him, you will feel that his breathing is changing - the child is holding his breath, hiding in order to escape in case of danger. I say this with confidence because I myself have four children. But then, when children grow up and begin to explore the world on their own, they may or may not adhere to their parents’ behavior model. They always have the opportunity to achieve greater success than their parents.
Can someone else influence karma? For example, can a consultation with a psychologist or other specialist change a person’s fate?
Yes. But only if the specialist is a professional. For example, a psychologist can sense the weaknesses of his client and warn him against mistakes in relationships. The Eastern shaman “calculates” the main element of man and actively introduces it into human life. And you don’t have to believe it at all. After all, when you come to the clinic and the doctor tells you: “You need to take such and such pills for 21 days,” you may not believe it, but take the pills. And, if the doctor turns out to be good, you get better without even believing it.
One day I was filming on television and a producer approached me. I saw that he listened to me carefully and decided to get acquainted. I told him about his life, about his problems, about his health, and advised him to simply change the color of his clothes for career growth. After some time he thanked me. I found out that he received a very serious project.
- You mentioned that a person is influenced by the elements. What does it mean?
There are five elements - fire, water, wood, earth and metal... They are unchanging. It's like a person - two arms, two legs and a head. We all need these elements. After all, it is difficult for a person to live without an arm or a leg (it happens the other way around, it is impossible to live with an extra arm or head). Just as the harmony of the human body is necessary, the harmony of the elements in a person is also necessary.
It is known that there are careful, attentive people, and there are those who are called “open systems.” They, like children, are open to everything and trust everyone. Even the “bricks” falling on their heads. They do not know how to block the negative actions of others. Can we say that such people are more susceptible to danger?
Yes, and there are many such people. Here's a hint: they usually have the number 3 in their date of birth. They are very compassionate people who always help others. And at the same time, oddly enough, they are usually very strong, hard-working, as they say, “self-made.” Shamans say that they belong to the Buddha of Compassion - Avalokiteshvara. This Buddha wants to help everyone. By the way, this strongly coincides with Orthodoxy. After all, the number 3 is the number of the trinity. Even if “the whole world collapses” on such a person, he will still have compassion. He helps everyone and always.
- How does karma affect the family tree and how to change negative attitudes?
First of all, you need to contact a specialist. After all, it is known that even psychologists often consult other psychologists about their own lives. In the shamanic tradition, one must read prayers and mantras. We recommend preparing for this procedure by sitting in a special way. And then, for example, bad people will bypass you.
I had one friend who did not believe in the power of shamans, but for some reason she still turned to me for help. And finally, I decided to do these unusual procedures for myself. Changes began immediately! She accepted them and was happy.
A psychologist understands that there are no coincidences in life. There are other traditions. For example, someone who practices yoga acts differently. The common consequence of the influence of a psychologist, a shaman, and a yogi is that a person becomes, on the one hand, more open to the world, and on the other, more protected. It is as if he falls into a “cocoon” and thereby protects himself. Imagine two people. Let’s say when winter comes, the first one puts on a hat and fur coat so as not to get sick, and the second one relies only on his own strength and health - he doesn’t put on warm clothes and inevitably gets sick.
Regardless of karma, we are able to maintain our health and the health of our loved ones!
Every day there are ups and downs. You can’t help but think: “Is this my destiny?” Especially if something unpleasant happens, you immediately think: “So this is my fate.” Is there destiny? Or is this our fantasy?
Once again, I decided that it was not fate, and I stopped making my own efforts. What did I do to make it different?
If you think about it, it turns out that I didn't make much effort to change the situation. From the outside, I look like a sad person who floats with the flow of life, without making any effort for my own happiness.
Does a person have a destiny? Everyone must answer this question for themselves.
Is there destiny? What is it, how does it affect our lives and can it be corrected?
Let's forget about failures for a moment and remember the good moments in life when everything turned out the way we would like. Now think about it, at that moment were you proud of yourself for your achievements or were you grateful to fate for such a successful coincidence of circumstances?
I'm proud of myself, how smart I am. And fate has nothing to do with it, there is no fate at all.
And when something goes wrong, it becomes clear that it is fate, the villain, who is to blame!
The question arises again: does a person have a destiny?
There are two explanations for everything that is happening:
1. There is destiny! Everything that happens to us, good or bad, is our destiny and we must accept it as such. We cannot influence fate or change it. And this begs the question: what’s the point in doing something if fate has decided everything for us?!
2. We decide our own lives. In fact, it doesn't matter whether there is destiny or not. The important thing is that we ourselves are the rulers of our lives, and everything around us can be the way we want it.
With the first, everything seems to be clear, but with the second, it’s more complicated. It turns out that our whole life depends only on us... And who then is to blame for all the troubles? Well, not your beloved self! How can I blame myself?!
Is fate destined?
Fate may exist, but only in theory. And we can continue to blame her unfortunate woman for all our troubles. But in practice, we build our own lives, and no one will do this for us.
The philosophical question of whether we control our lives orthe fate of a person itself directs along the desired path, and remains unresolved. But if you look carefully, you can find several interesting answers that will significantly help you achieve your goals and allow you to look at life a little differently. So let's find out after alldoes fate exist?
What is fate?
We often hear the word "fate", but what it is we imagine vaguely. This term is actively used in esotericism, and is completely rejected by materialists as some kind of heresy, unworthy of attention. But you still need to define the concepts in order to know what we are talking about. So, under the term "fate" the predetermination of all events is implied.
And usually we witness two opposing opinions at once:
- Fate exists and everything is predetermined from above.
- Man builds his own destiny.
Which statement do you think is true? Is there destiny? Or do we choose our own path? Remember the answer, but for now let's move on.
How we make choices
To understand whether fate exists, you need to turn to psychology. This may seem strange, but you will soon understand the truth of the statement. After all, the main question of the topic is - do we make our own choices or did fate make it for us? To get the answer, you need to figure out how this very choice occurs, what mechanism is activated in our psyche.
The fact is that the psyche as such is a set of programs that organically interact. Love, fear, anger, joy, the ability to learn and, of course, make decisions - all these feelings and skills have their own operating algorithm. Always the same for all people. When we get excited, there is a reason for it. When we are angry, there is also something that awakens this feeling. And when we make a choice, we have our own reasons that force us to act this way and not otherwise.
I would like to cite one fascinating excerpt from the film “The Matrix”. This may come as a bit of a surprise, but the scene where Neo and the seers meet is thought-provoking.
Pythia: I would invite you to sit down, but you still refuse. And don't worry about the vase.
Neo: What vase?
Neo turns to look and touches the vase, it breaks.
Pythia: Yes this one.
Neo: Sorry.
Pythia: She said don't worry. My kids will glue it together.
Neo: How did you find out?
Pythia: Oh, I think you’re more interested in something else: would you have broken the vase if I hadn’t told you?
But is it true, would he have broken the vase if the seer had not spoken about it?
I asked this question to my friends, but few could give a reasoned answer. They only said “yes” or “no.” But no one suggested a third answer - Pythia could not help but say about the vase.
– chain of events
To understand this answer, let's look at how any events happen in our lives. To do this, let's take a simple example - you are going to lunch.
Why are you doing this?
The answer is simple - you are hungry, you need to eat to live. These factors merge into one impulse that shapes your decision and you act.
It turns out we see a chain cause - effect, which resembles the domino principle. Each domino pushes the next one and so the whole chain falls. But do dominoes have no choice? Returning to our example, your hunger is the reason here. What you going to lunch - consequence.
Question: is this fate? Do you have a choice not to go to lunch?
Materialists will say, “yes, I can stay home and starve.” And I agree with you - after you read this article, you have a new impulse, because a new reason has appeared. And as a result, you make a new decision.
But imagine that you are in Groundhog Day. Only, unlike the hero of the film, you do not realize that you are experiencing the same day. Then 100 times out of 100 you will go to lunch. You will perform the same action. Why? Yes, because the conditions have not changed.
Running away from fate, he, as usually happens, rushes towards it (Titus Livius).
To describe this even more figuratively, imagine a billiard ball. You hit him with a cue. And if you hit from the same place, exactly repeating the force and angle of impact, then each time the ball will end up in the same position. Logical?
And if you apply this to your life - under the same conditions, WITH THE SAME IMPULSES, you will do exactly the same. That is, you do not choose your actions, they are already chosen by those reasons, those dominoes that are in the chain. The domino does not choose to “fall” - it is “fallen”. Likewise, impulses in your head do not choose to “appear,” they “appear.” And these impulses determine your “choice”. That's right - reasons determine impulses in your head, on the basis of which you make a decision. 2*2 always = 4. The same impulse always = the same solution. Any event in your life is a cause that gives rise to an effect.
Every impulse, every desire has its own reason from the past. And every action and every thought has a consequence in the future.
That is, again we are faced with a chain of events that always operates. This means that any of our desires is already predetermined. In this case, does a person have freedom of choice? Or is it just our imagination?
The seer in the film told Neo a very correct phrase: “Have you come to me to choose? Your choice has been made, all you have to do is realize it.” There is no need to be afraid of it, just accept it.
How to find out your destiny?
Probably every person is interested in finding out what will happen to him in the future, what his fate is. And if we understand that every event has its own cause, and fate as a whole is a chain consisting of these causes, then it is logical to assume that fate can be recognized. To do this, of course, we need to know every reason, see every link in the chain, which is usually beyond our control. However, what is hidden from consciousness is an open book to our subconscious.
The fact is that the human brain is a generator of energy impulses that carry information. And every second, even at this moment, waves of energy emanate from your brain in all directions, which, like ripples on water, spread in all directions at tremendous speed. And we receive such waves from every living being. And not only them. Any action and event is woven into the global web of energy-information space. This is a kind of Internet, the connection with which is constantly maintained by the subconscious. Do you think how we can sense a person’s mood and why our mood can be transmitted to others?
Telepathy, telekinesis, the ability to know the past and future, all these phenomena are based precisely on the fact of the interconnection of all objects and phenomena. But we are not aware of it, just as we do not control the heartbeat and blood flow in our veins. And to gain access to information hidden in the depths of the subconscious, you need learn to work with it.
So we have answered an important question - is there destiny? Of course, discussions will continue for a long time, and there will be many opinions. One of them is that our choice has been made and we simply open it, because life is a spindle of chains that converge and diverge, creating a mathematical harmony that we call fate. And yes, we influence it, but this influence is already predetermined.
