Destiny

There are two divergent views, even in the Indian classic (Gita): On the one hand Krishna reveals to Arjuna that not a blade of grass moves without his will, on the other hand he exhorts him, to action. He further explains to him, even though nothing is there in world, which is not already destined to happen but still each object living or inert, has to discharge an obligation to society/environs, in which it happens (not by chance) to take birth. Both destiny and karma (action) are essential functions of nature. Each co-ordinates and co-exists in perfect harmony. If one solely believes in destiny and discharges no Karma (action) he is taken away from his predestined course of life and put in another circle of slothful existence.
