FATE AND FREEWILL.
This topic is always under discussion with many scholar specially with astrologers.
Here i am providing the statements on this topic from Matsya Puran chapter 221, where Lord Matsya (Avatar of Lord Vishnu) is explaining to King Manu.
There are only 12 verse which explains the superiority on fate and perseverance (efforts).
English Translation :
Manu said : Lord , which is superior, fate or one's own exercise and efforts ? I have got the doubts on this, kindly solve them. -- Verse 1
Lord Matsya said: The actions of past life are know as fate* or Daivya, consequently the wise have always hold one's own effort and perseverance as superior. A man who every day performs righteous and auspicious deeds turns even his ill luck into a good one.
Those who has performed good deed in past life and are filled with SatvaGuna do get their desired fruits without there personal efforts and exertions.
Rajuguna class of men get fruits accordance to their perseverance and efforts and Tamoguna Class of men attain their desire with difficulty and hard efforts. - Verse 2-5
O King! That men get their desires fulfilled by efforts and energy and those who are incapable of perseverance and efforts regards fate as supreme.
Consequently at all times (past, present and future) fate conjoint with perseverance are successful. Perseverance and fate give desire result in its own time thus
Fate, Perseverance and Time all three conjointly bear fruit to the man. - Verse 6-8
Agricultural prospects thrive by rain which again depends on fixed time and not otherwise. - 9
A man should therefore persevere righteously he then gets high fruits during adversity and even if he does not get fruits in this life, he is sure to get them in the next world. - Verse 10
Lazy people and those that only depend on fate do not ever gain their objects, so one should always persevere in the path of righteousness. - Verse 11
Prosperity forsakes those who always dream of fate and favours those who persevere, one should therefore always be active and alert - Verse 12
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Positive Fate means blessings. Negative fate means curses.
This the basis of horoscope.
We try to read fate by analysis the quality of time (personal calendar) and guide native to perform righteous and required efforts to get desired results.
