“I used to disbelieve in fate, but now I realize that it exists. I still do not believe that it is written, in somewhere, by a supernatural being. This is our brain, our fate is hidden in our brain. We cannot do anything in the strict sense of the term, our brain does it instead of us. Our brain automatically decides, for example, when and with whom we are going to fall in love; what we are going to seek in life in order to give some meaning to our life and feel somehow personal happiness. We can only be aware of a small part of these complex processes. Just our brain determines our fate, we cannot choose our brain, that is, its design, the proportion of concrete locations there, its functional activity level, etc. This is absolutely impossible, we are only born with it unwillingly. In that context, our fate had already been determined before we were born. Trying to change the fate means trying to change the design of the brain.”
