Spiritual Understanding of Predestination
Person needs Freewill, Determination, Effort or Ego to progress from Illusionary/Ignorant state (1st Gunasthank) to Monkshood state (6th Gunasthank)
Person can not spiritually progress further without dissolving his/her ego.
To the egoless person, all events that occur in the universe seems predestined
This does not mean that events are predestined in reality (all five causes are equally present)
Also we continuously change two of the five causes:
Freewill and Nimitta (Karma and External situation)
Hence the probability of all events are predetermined is very low Only single concept of Predestination violates Jain theory of Five Samavayi Causes (Theory of Karma and Freewill)
