Gary Weber and Rich Doyle discuss predestination, the illusion of control, free will and the illusion of time. The possibility of the Universal Field being the all-pervasive, matter-creating Higgs field is discussed as well as whether it might be "self-aware". Living "in the now" realizing that "everything is One" removes the sense of time, control, free will or predestination.
A complete transcription of this dialogue is available in "Into the Stillness: Dialogues on Awakening Beyond Thought" available on amazon.com and non-dualitypress.org in hardcopy and kindle versions.

The blogposts "i get "no free will" intellectually but can't make it real" @ preview.tinyurl.com/c7ax8ao, and "You say "we have no free will" and we're "not in control"...is that experience, science or philosophy?" @ preview.tinyurl.com/cym3hsk discuss this as well.
The videos "Everything is predetermined: Einstein and Ramana Maharshi on free will", "You are not in control" and "Intelligent Choice is Impossible" also discuss these issues.
The blogpost "The impossibility of 'free will'...scientifically and logically" @ happinessbeyondthought.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-impossibility-of-free.html gives the latest science.
