In many minds, a sensation of freewill stands in contest against mounting evidence of determinism. Are sentient beings free to choose or destined for a pre-selected fate? The mistake being made by this age old question is to assume that freewill and determinism are mutual exclusions. Instead, a thinker might notice how freewill and determinism do in fact arrive as a mutual inclusion. Simultaneous freewill and determinism describe a sentient experience.

A single will is free to choose anything while it determines everything and makes countless decisions. This is why cells and their mechanisms know how to behave without coaching or instruction. This is why a glob of fungi can engineer transportation routes with near-equal efficacy compared to teams of human engineers. Notice, the human body acts as an antenna that tunes in the single will from separate locations by varying degrees of electromagnetic clarity. This is why major world religions of ancient incubation and long lines of sincere thinkers have reached the same conclusion time and again: when expressed at peak clarity, the universal-will is forgiving, accepting, and patient. From this vantage, the truth becomes clear that everybody is doing their best under given circumstances. Anytime a person has had "more love" to give, it had been given without hesitation.

Compassion is the eternal way of the single intelligence. The entire universe has conspired for billions of years to bring humanity to existence alongside this message. Nothing less carries the magnanimity required to explain how blind stupidity has been able to make it this far and continue going. Well done.

Although not as of yet, it is inevitable that humanity will  become cognizant of the universal will and its full code of language and operation. We are  well on our way without having tried for it. The human body is already a truth-seeking device. Notice that it does not know how to live any other way. Human bodies express the universal will with every fiber, affect, and effect.

As human bodies  have developed self-awareness, it is only a matter of "time" before the  macro-organism that is the universe also develops self-awareness. This maturation will include humanity, arrive by its own timeline, and will not be rushed. All that is required of the people to reach this epic destiny without trouble is to allow ourselves and one another to be what we are without worry, fear, or doubt.
