Few days ago I asked my question and got back very interesting answer. I’ve got the answer from Michael Laitman. I want to share it with you:
A question: Can changing your name help you change your destiny? I heard that certain letters can help improve people’s lives.
Answer: Besides the Upper Light, there is nothing that can change our destiny. Even when it seems like we change it, later we find out that it only got worse. That’s because in doing so, we avoid becoming corrected by the Upper Light, and hence we start lagging behind in correction, and this evokes negative correcting forces - greater blows of fate.
The problem with amulets, spells, and mysticism is that they distract us, and we start being late with correcting ourselves. This causes an accumulation of evil that’s expressed as suffering. So the suffering doesn’t come from above, but it’s our own uncorrected properties turning against us. laitman.com/2008/07/only-the … r-destiny/
Trying to change one’s destiny only delays that destiny: which is what you have duely professed! Facing up to, and then surpassing things, is always best: once you surpass things, your flying!
I believe destiny is more than just a word to understand so claiming nothing can change our destiny is a little too exaggrating. We humans are living to learn and still have to live to learn more. Destiny is too untouchable for human beings to reach, because you have to have the clue and knowledge of EVERYTHING to know what “Destiny” is about.
[i]American Heritage Dictionary destiny (děs’tə-nē)
n. pl. des·ti·nies
The inevitable or necessary fate (‘future’ moment) to which a particular person or thing is destined; one’s lot.
A predetermined course of events considered as something beyond human power or control: “Marriage and hanging go by destiny” (Robert Burton).
The power or agency thought to predetermine events: Destiny brought them together.[/i]
… do you see anything that implies that ‘change’ is possible? Like asking if one can ‘change’ the ‘future’. Ridiculous… One cannot even ‘change’ what is, much less what ‘is’ in another moment.!
You are absolutely right that we don’t know what ‘is’ in another moment. But are we content to let it be? To let nature take control and decide for us?
There is no actual distinction between “nature” and “us.” Nature is not some big force out there out to decide for us if didn’t try hard enough to stop her. We are a part of nature.
To tempt fate. I always liked that phrase it has such a dire warning. How can we change what we do not know? I was destined to be where I am but, where is my destiny tomorrow? Why should I worry over fate? Her fickle hand is not predjudiced she teases us all. She dances hand in hand with the baby New Year and the Grim Reaper. They have a grand time dancing on our heads. So let them, just try to enjoy what they bring when they bring it , because you really can’t exchange it. Wal-mart has not reached that realm yet.
I didn’t say that we couldn’t know what is in another moment. We certainly can, and often do.
What I said was that we cannot change anything.
We have no ‘choice’. We can delude ourselves and shoot for the egoic prideful feelings of ‘judgement’ and ‘godlike control’, great and powerful ‘feelings’, but, ultimately, no more than that, ‘feelings’ and ‘ego food’.
We can be discontent that we aren’t an earthworm, and that ‘discontent’ is suffering. We are not, nor can be an ‘earthworm’. One can shoot for the ‘feelings’, though, and attempt to relieve the suffering of our discontent. A grand game!
Ok, with a bit of reading, I find that you were talking to me. I don’t read everything, but I do scan for my name in a reply; if you refer to one of my posts, please use my name in the quote function so I don’t miss it. I’ll probably search less hard for personal replies if they don’t include the courtesy of a ‘name’ for me to see. Thanks.
Now…
‘Anything’ = (every moment of) all existence ever. Anything/everything. A Complete universe (as ‘your’ Perspective), unique in all Moments, Complete, Now! And, Now! And, Now! ‘Change’ = the ‘alteration’ in any way, shape or form, of ‘anything’ (see above).
With the definitions, you aught to be able to make sense of what ““we can’t change anything” means?!!!”
In what way can/will ‘you’ ‘change’ the universe, in it’s static Completeness, in/as every Moment of Existence? Just egoic illusions of grandeur, hubris, vanity imagines us as capable of such feats of wonder, and at our ‘whim’ no less!
As to what I am doing here;
By ‘here’ do you mean my presence on this forum? ‘Here’ on the earth? ‘Here’ in existence? ‘Here’ in your mind? Here in my mind?
