What this episode covers

Tonight, I want to explore the theme of dependent origination—how everything is shaped by what came before, how our reactions and choices are influenced by our conditioning, and where karma fits in. So, how much free will do you think we really have? Are we truly in charge of our responses, or do we sometimes feel like we're just reacting out of habit, shaped by past experiences, family, religion, and society? That's the big question for tonight: how much agency do we actually have over our lives, and how much is simply conditioning at work? How much free will do we actually have? Are you totally in charge of all of your reactions?
