combination of some free will and some predetermined?

My argument is that "fee will" is akin to a code or program figuring out who the programmer is and changing the bits & bytes on its own. Is that even possible or conceivable in this universe? That's the question!

So it's not my fault that I spend a ridiculous amount of time watching youtube videos and eating Doritos? I feel so much better now.

We are pre-destined to have free will.

True. But it's impossible to know the destiny.

Leave the mind with only one clear wish, and the whole world will be a hammer for your nail.

The chains of causality behind our every decision, are endless. They transcend the beginning, the borders of the universe.

The karma to become a Buddha, a conqueror, a billionaire, may already be here, hidden within the stars. It may come into fruition at any, seemingly random, moment.
