I asked this question mainly to stir the pot. In general I think people are way too focused on โthe meaning of lifeโ instead of just fulfilling their dharma and doing their best in the moment. Itโs over logicising something that we will never know the answer to. I think most answers people give to this question are often rooted in ego or some need to virtue signal.
Here's my personal summary of this weeks Practical Philosophy meet-up on "Free Will." Was a toughy for me, but maybe other people found it more straightforward. https://youtu.be/_IQUF_t1RoI
