Free Will

“The free will should be one of an individuals most prized possessions. This is an elementary spiritual concept. If we were to urge and warn a person continually, or if we were to continually point out his errors and future downfalls, we would be grossly affecting that person’s right to choose. An individual’s free will is the one aspect of their spirit that brings about that individual’s spiritual advancement, or lack of same. It is vitally imperative that each person retain a strong free will. When people are led around and constantly told which paths to take, they are not advancing themselves; they are no more than robots…”
