Desires & Karma are to a soul what Thoughts & Action are to a Person. Usually the soul replicates the person's thoughts and actions by picking up similar data packets in the Fourth Dimension. In the third dimensional world there is no free will as there are innumerable scenes in all the permutations & combinations and the soul just chooses to attach to a particular scene to experience it. In that sense in the physical world there is no free will because once the soul decides to attach to a scene it can only experience the possibilities of that scene. But at the same time if the soul learns to detach itself from the physical world it can choose to attach itself to a different Data pack in the fourth dimension and experience a different scene in the physical world. In that sense it does have a free will. Albeit, for this it is important for the soul to remain independent of the character it is experiencing.
To understand the process of detachment it is important to first understand our 4 mental bodies along with our physical body.
A) Physical Body
The Physical body is trying to attain completeness through growth, preservation, procreation trying to reach immortality through a lineage.
B) Intelligence
The Intelligence is seeking completeness through securing our future, materially & emotionally. It is logical & always watches self interest.
C) Intellect
The Intellect seeks completeness through relationships. It is selfless & spontaneous, it likes something or rejects it but can’t explain its choices. It needs intelligence to explain the logic.
D) Samskara
Samskara seeks completeness through order & consistency.. It believes whatever the whole & complete is, it is certain, uniform, systematic and unchanging. In that sense it's always looking for stability in life.
E) Chitta
Chitta is the stark opposite of Samskara. It believes if there is anything as whole & complete it has to be random, chaotic, abstract, unpredictable & irrational. Its desires are path breaking and extreme. Luckily Chitta rarely comes in foreground to push its desires but it plays a vital role in endorsing desires made by the Samskara, Intellect, Intelligence & the Physical Body.
Here it is important to understand that the body-mind through all these 5 aspects is trying to reach completeness. This is a futile effort because every time the body-mind meets one desire another one is born. To reach that state of completeness is to reach the awareness of the Soul because it is already complete.
The more we are able to observe these 5 sheaths of our body-mind the easier it becomes to un-identify from them and watch them mutually exclusive of each other in third person. That’s when the observe becomes the observed i.e. the Soul the eternal observer behind all scenes in life & beyond.
