Destiny - Do you believe in it?

Yes! But choices still have to be made when we have an encounter with fate,...destiny. The seemingly inevitably succession of events. Its 3:42 am, I was sound to sleep,  woke up, couldn't go back to sleep, so I got on the computer, and "Wallah"...destiny, your question was there out of thousands and thousands. Destiny is not always big life altering plans, sometimes its small moment to moment encounters.

If it is destiny and assuming destiny exists, it will find you.

Yes and no. When you think about fate I think that some people are fated like say a person born with an incurable disease or being born to your parents. Where is your free will in that? Also, I don't go by day to day astrology but I can tell you that I must be the poster child for my astrological sign. The personality is totally me and I usually don't get along with those they say I'm incompatible with. You have options to shape your own destiny but there is a little bit of fate to even it out.

I used to until I lost a very close friend. This friend had very long life and destiny lines. \n But the lines turned out to be just lines!\n I guess you never really know. For some people they might be more correct.\nBut if believing in them makes you happy, keep on believing!

I do believe in an afterlife, but assuming heaven did not exist, then, yes I believe humans would create a belief in one for comfort and expectation of a new life to come.  I could even go as far as to say the mind is a powerful thing, powerful enough to even create supposed proof of afterlife by communicating with departed souls.  But, if the mind is that powerful, enough to falsely prove life exists after this one, isn't that power enough to say something bigger is going on here.  It points to the path the soul does live on, in my opinion.

This is up to you. I truly believe in the power of perception. Kind of like blind Faith. I have reached a point on my life that I have become such a realist and a believer in factual science that I believe in nothing. Ghost, flying saucers, Aliens, Big Foot, none of that stuff that was fun to believe in when I was younger and more easily influenced. I have become BORING!!!!!!!!!

It is very easy to believe in something you witness for yourself. However, I do believe there are some real basis for believing some individuals have this type of ability. I believe it is rare, but definitely could be a possibility. I do not like to just dismiss something out of hand, because I have yet to be around somebody who demonstrated this ability to me. However, I have heard from others that they have seen people who can do this. I do think it is a very rare gift, but look at all God can do, if you believe in God. I do. I find anything is possible if you open your mind to the possibilities in this world, the solor system around us, and the one even further out we can't see yet.

you should believe in whatever you want to believe in.  It's no one else's descision but yours. you are in control of your destiny.  You believe in what you want to believe in.  Be what you wanna be.  Do what you wanna do.

Destiny is the inevitable fate to which a person is destined, where fate is a predetermined course of events. \n\nOr a better way to put it is fate is like the path which is already been planned out leading to a predetermined destiny.  I think

To me, this means that my destiny is my own decision.  That the things I do and the decisions I make are my own and not predetermined by an Almighy Being.\n\nThis ALSO means that the repercussions to those decisions and behaviors are my own responsibility, that I can only blame myself for the results.

Well, not everyone does. It's just that many people get caught up in Fate and Destiny that they fool themselves into thinking there is no Freewill.\n\nBut I say that there most definately is freewill. Although one could be born poor, there are so many directions you could take, choices made, to pull yourself up. To relate your unfortunate situation or condition to Fate or Destiny is often a sign of giving up Hope.\n\nAnd Hope is one thing that all people need to move forward in life, to find fulfillment, find happiness. Freewill is not hated here... rather very much respected :)

hey, this question reminds me of the movie, Roadhouse.  Where patrick swayze tells that veterinarian gal:  "Do you believe in the hereafter?  Then you know what I'm here after!'

I believe that God has planned out your life for you.  And whether you believe that you planned your destiny or not, it was meant to be that way.  Everything happens for a reason.

We do not control our destiny... but we can if we really want to!\n\n\nThe destiny of a human being is fixed or variable. Can the control of destiny be exercised by one! Is it possible for a normal human being to take complete control of his destiny? Is it possible to manifest destiny?\n\nYes! It is possible to manifest destiny if you are able to understand the crux of life. The destiny of every human being rests with one. It is like a chest of gold the key of which is not immediately made available to us. Only having passed certain standards in life would the key become available to us?\n\nTo be able to manifest our own destiny there are some requisites fulfilling which one shall be able to manifest his own destiny? The moment one enters the domain of human life... the highest manifest stage in the cosmic life... one can reach the stage of enlightenment and finally salvation. Before that we need to take control of our destiny in totality. How?\n\n\nBefore we indulge further in the matter of destiny... we need to understand the reality of life!\n\nThe garb of a human being has been taken by our soul atman within. It is not vice versa. It is not within the competence of a body to inherit a soul atman within. That is just not possible. Our soul atman within has taken the body to purify itself of all the impurities contained within. Unless and until our soul atman is devoid of all the dross within... it can never become enlightened and gain salvation.\n\nThe goal of life belongs to our soul atman within. The body only does its bidding! It is only when the body sublimates itself entirely at the disposal of the atman soul within... can the body manifest destiny. The ego of the body has to be merged with the larger ego... the ego of God Almighty. Unless the body completely surrenders its ego and merges with the larger whole... the body can never manifest destiny.\n\n\nHaving realized the truth of life... submerging our ego with that of Almighty God... one does manifest destiny for ever. It is at this point our soul atman becomes governing. The ego of a human being having merged completely with the desires of the soul atman within... the soul atman becomes free to reach its goal at the earliest.

I agree with mainwoolly (and not for the first time); I suspect that nonsensical beliefs of all kinds actually have a real-world, real-time effect, on the human mind if nothing else.\n\nWe all know people who never make a decision without first performing a tarot card reading, or faithfully check their horoscopes every day, or whatever.  They simply do not hear you when you point out that it's a pile, no, a truckload, nay, a Matterhorn of horse-hockey.  These same people retain enough sense to enable them to pass their drivers' license tests; to get and hold jobs; to raise children who stay out of prison (the majority of them, at any rate).  \n\nAnd they never notice the contradiction, they never notice that their own brains are divided against them.  It's like walking around with a big ole ugly-a$$ nine-hundred-pound gorilla perched on your shoulder.  I've never studied psychology so I can't understand how or why this works for anyone; but apparently it does.\n\nHow much might more have been accomplished already if so many of us weren't permitting ourselves to be held back in this way?  It doesn't bear thinking about, really.
