fate


I’m a scientific guy who sees fate everywhere. Turns out it was autism.


I guess the difference between Einstein’s fate and that of a shaman is replicability. It’s what the buddha talked about; reflecting the world. Einstein saw relativity; he saw the weave and he gave it form. That was his fate; his dhamma.


Other people have seen God; they had a different framework for understanding their world. I see fate, patterns, science, planning. 


I see everything going back like the roots of a tree from now, converging, and ready to grow, on a steady path with a degree of randomness. I see that it could never have been any other way and will never be any other way.

For some reason I thought this contradicted science.


Fate doesn’t contradict science. 

Fate *is* science.


Fate is autism spotting patterns. Some patterns are real, and some are not. Causality or coincidence? That’s the key. Science isn’t always correct or good. Fate is your brain testing a hypothesis.
