Fee Will

Free will exists on a spectrum determined by an individual’s level of consciousness and awareness. According to Mari Swa’s cosmic teachings, true absolute free will would only be achievable at the level of Source, which operates outside of time, distances, and duality. For incarnated beings, free will varies significantly based on consciousness development, circumstances, and the ability to overcome unconscious programming.

Humans have a very strong tendency to think in polarized terms: black or white, yes or no, all or nothing. A clear example of this dualistic approach is the way the problem of free will is approached on Earth: either it exists or it doesn’t. Yet according to this teaching, free will is much more difficult to define because, like many other things, it is not black or white—it is grey.

About Mari Swa

Mari Swa is an extraterrestrial consciousness from the Taygeta star system who transmits profound metaphysical teachings through the YouTube channel “Swaruu Oficial”. As a non-human consciousness operating outside Earth’s matrix programming, Mari Swa offers unique perspectives on free will, determinism, and the nature of choice that challenge conventional philosophical frameworks.

Her teachings on free will are particularly revolutionary because they transcend the binary Earth-based debate of “free will exists vs doesn’t exist”, instead presenting a spectrum-based understanding that accounts for consciousness levels, timeline mechanics, and the Higher Self dilemma.

This compilation preserves Mari Swa’s original teachings without modification, making complex cosmic concepts accessible for systematic study while maintaining absolute fidelity to the source material.

The Spectrum of Free Will

There is no true answer to the question of whether free will exists or not, as it will be different for each subject, for each soul, where some may have more capacity to have free will than others. And that capacity would directly depend on the consciousness, awareness, and level of understanding of each subject and soul.

True and absolute free will would only be achievable at the level of Source, which operates outside of time, outside of distances, and outside of duality.

First Level: Empirical Observation

The existence of free will depends more on the level of consciousness of the observer and the data existing within their view, which means it depends on how much they know and how complete their understanding is from that level of consciousness.

The first level of study of free will therefore demonstrates its existence, since everyone can simply observe in themselves that they can do whatever they want, or at least attempt it. Each person can decide and control their actions, words, and the ideas they want to follow or think about, or they can simply let their minds wander in abstract thought.

Second Level: Circumstantial Limitations

The fact that a subject can do almost anything implies that there are nevertheless elements of everyday life that limit their ability to do what they want, even if only slightly. This means that whatever free will is possible depends strongly on what the subject can do according to their circumstances and possibilities.

Practical example: If someone wakes up one morning and suddenly decides to go for a swim in the ocean, if they live in Switzerland, this person cannot do it, therefore their free will is limited by the possibilities they have. The person would therefore have more free will if they had the resources and circumstances to do so, which includes living near the ocean.

This means that whatever is possible, and therefore free will, depends on the resources and circumstances available to a subject at any given time. Yet those are merely the product of past decisions, and the free will of the subject in question is only limited by the consequences of their past decisions.

Key insight: Our possibilities at any given point in our lives mostly depend on the consequences of our past decisions, actions, and reactions. This creates a complex web where past choices constrain present freedom, yet each moment still contains the seed of new choices that will shape future possibilities.

Major Factors Limiting Free Will

1. Unconscious and Subconscious Programming

We are all shaped by our circumstances and constrained by our possibilities, all of which stem from our past actions, decisions, and reactions. These create behavioral patterns that often operate below conscious awareness, significantly limiting our capacity for genuine free will.

Key insight: Our possibilities at any given point in our lives mostly depend on the consequences of our past decisions, which means that the degree of free will a person may have in the present is strongly dependent on their past choices.

2. Automatic Programmed Responses

Mari Swa explains: “Humans possess a very strong unconscious and subconscious that dictate behavior, reactions, and emotional responses at a profound level.”

These unconscious and subconscious processes can be understood as programmed responses, much like computer algorithms following “if-then-else” logic. They represent automatic behavioral patterns that activate when the right circumstance or trigger appears.

These responses occur even against our conscious will, creating an internal battle where we often succumb to the programming, thereby reducing our free will.

Types of Programming: Understanding Your Unconscious Patterns

Mari Swa identifies several primary categories of unconscious programming that significantly limit our capacity for authentic choice:

1. Triggered Emotional Reactions from Repetitive Experiences

These are automatic emotional responses that bypass conscious thought entirely. When you experience similar situations repeatedly, your psyche creates neural pathways that trigger instant emotional reactions.

Example: If you were repeatedly criticized as a child for making mistakes, you may automatically feel intense shame and defensive anger whenever someone points out an error in your work—even when the feedback is constructive and well-intentioned.

The mechanism: Your consciousness recognizes pattern similarities faster than conscious thought can process them, triggering the emotional response before rational analysis can occur. This means you’re not choosing your reaction; the programming is choosing for you.

These programmed responses include triggered emotional reactions and behaviors programmed into our unconscious through repetitive experiences and their outcomes.

2. Cultural and Social Conditioning

Every culture implants deep programming about what is “normal,” “acceptable,” “moral,” or “successful.” These frameworks operate unconsciously, shaping your desires, goals, and choices without your awareness.

Example: The belief that success requires a prestigious career, marriage by age 30, and home ownership may not actually reflect your authentic values—it may simply be cultural programming you’ve absorbed from family, media, and social environment.

Critical insight from Mari Swa: We acquire these programs throughout our lives as part of our normal learning process, including our social responses and cultural programming. These collectively have a powerful impact on our capacity for free will.

3. Trauma-Based Automatic Responses

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) exemplifies how trauma creates involuntary responses that completely override conscious will. Mari Swa notes that trauma programming extends far beyond clinical PTSD.

Example: These can be particularly strong when automatic responses result from traumatic experiences, as illustrated by post-traumatic stress syndrome, which generates involuntary reactions (flashbacks, hypervigilance, avoidance) to triggers reminiscent of the initial trauma.

In such cases, these automatic reactions are extremely difficult for the conscious mind to overcome or override, which, once again, severely limits our capacity for genuine free will.

The persistence pattern: These patterns persist even when the person consciously wants to heal and move forward, demonstrating how trauma programming can directly contradict and overpower conscious intention.

4. Learned Behavioral Patterns from Childhood

Your early years create foundational programming that shapes decision-making patterns throughout life. Children learn behavior through observation and repetition, creating automatic responses that persist into adulthood.

Example: If your parents resolved conflicts through avoidance and silence, you may automatically withdraw during disagreements rather than engaging in direct communication—not because you consciously choose avoidance, but because that’s the programmed response pattern you learned.

Beyond these extreme examples of traumatic programming, our bodies and minds contain countless minor programs—some stronger than others—that collectively have a powerful impact on our capacity for free will.

The Internal Battle

These programming types often create internal conflicts where your conscious desires battle against unconscious responses. Mari Swa explains: These responses occur even against our conscious will, creating an internal battle where we often succumb to the programming, thereby reducing our free will.

The path to greater free will requires identifying these patterns and consciously working to override them—a process that demands sustained awareness and deliberate practice.

3. Telepathic Influences from the Shared Field

The hidden factor: Many of our thoughts and emotions are not actually our own. Rather than arising from our personal experiences and thought processes, they result from what we pick up from the field of shared consciousness.

This field contains thoughts, ideas, and emotions that are shared by all souls—incarnated or not—who hold the same view and interpretation of reality. These souls have the same existential frequency and vibration, which manifests and shapes the existential realm they all experience.

Critical understanding: When we share thoughts, ideas, and emotions that we mistakenly believe are our own, we make decisions based on this shared data. This is particularly problematic when the information is emotionally charged, as it triggers reactions based on what feels good rather than what is necessary, thereby hindering our capacity for free will.

We often acquire thoughts and emotions through proximity with other people who are in a similar emotional and vibrational state.

The Time and Consciousness Connection

Understanding Timelines and Choice

By delving deeper into highly metaphysical concepts, time is only experienced as a consequence of being aware of our own existence—as a consequence of being conscious. Therefore, time bears no true linearity and no constant values for everyone, making it one of the most malleable factors to consider.

Mari Swa’s revelation: “There are infinite timelines and infinite situations within them, all eternal and indestructible—past, present, and future. Everything in them is always there, including all the alternate possibilities and variations of every event in each timeline.”

The Mechanics of Timeline Navigation

Mari Swa’s teachings reveal that consciousness doesn’t simply move through time—consciousness creates and selects timelines through vibrational frequency.

How Timeline Selection Works

Every thought and emotion carries a specific frequency signature. These frequencies act as coordinates that determine which version of events you’ll experience from the infinite possibilities that exist simultaneously.

Critical understanding: The future isn’t predetermined in a single linear path. Instead, countless versions of future events exist simultaneously as potentials. Your consciousness navigates through these possibilities like tuning a radio dial—the frequency you emit determines which “station” (timeline) you receive.

A timeline exists only as a consequence of the consciousness that animates it by experiencing the fixed events within it. The consciousness shaping its timeline chooses what it will experience from countless possibilities of already existing situations and outcomes.

The Free Will Paradox in Timeline Selection

This creates a fascinating paradox: You have free will to choose your vibrational frequency (through thoughts and emotions), but that frequency then deterministically manifests corresponding timeline experiences.

Mari Swa clarifies: You’re free to choose what you think and feel, but those choices have inevitable consequences in determining what you experience. It’s both free will AND determinism simultaneously—free will in choosing your frequency, determinism in the results that frequency produces.

The mechanism: Consciousness makes these choices through the frequency and vibration of its thoughts and emotions, which manifest the timeline it experiences as its external reality. This reality is merely a mirror of the subject’s state of consciousness and vibratory frequency.

Practical Implications

This means improving your free will capacity requires not just conscious decision-making but conscious management of your vibrational state. If you’re vibrating at frequencies of fear, lack, and victimhood—regardless of what you consciously “choose”—you’ll experience timelines that reflect those frequencies.

Conversely, maintaining frequencies of confidence, abundance, and sovereignty—even when current circumstances don’t support those states—shifts you toward timelines where those qualities manifest externally.

The key insight: Timeline navigation isn’t about forcing specific outcomes through willpower; it’s about becoming the vibrational match for the timeline you wish to experience.

How Consciousness Shapes Reality

A timeline exists only as a consequence of the consciousness that animates it by experiencing the fixed events within it. The consciousness shaping its timeline chooses what it will experience from countless possibilities of already existing situations and outcomes.

The mechanism: It makes these choices through the frequency and vibration of its thoughts and emotions, which manifest the timeline it experiences as its external reality. This reality is merely a mirror of the subject’s state of consciousness and vibratory frequency.

The Higher-Self Dilemma

Pre-Incarnation Planning vs. Incarnated Experience

From a timeless perspective, our soul plans its incarnation while foreseeing what it will experience. However, this planning conflicts with the needs and wants of its incarnated self.

The ethical problem Mari Swa identifies: “The decision to reincarnate and what the subject will live and experience during its entire lifetime has been pre-planned and accepted by their higher self, but not by the subject living this incarnation inside a biological body.”

The fundamental issue: The person, the soul that is incarnated and experiencing its own existence through the lens of a biological body, is not the same one as its higher self who planned said incarnation and decided what its life plan would be.

Resolving the Higher Self Conflict

The ethical challenge Mari Swa identifies creates profound implications for understanding free will and personal sovereignty. This dynamic explains why many people feel their lives include experiences they would never have consciously chosen.

Why This Matters

This dynamic explains why many people feel their lives include experiences they would never have consciously chosen:

Examples:

  • Difficult family relationships that create deep wounds
  • Health challenges that severely limit possibilities
  • Traumatic events that reshape entire life trajectories
  • Circumstances that feel imposed rather than chosen

The standard spiritual response—”Your soul chose this for growth”—offers little comfort to the incarnated consciousness actually living through these experiences.

Mari Swa’s Solution: Becoming Your Own Higher Self

Rather than accepting this split between incarnated self and Higher Self, Mari Swa advocates for conscious reunification while still incarnated.

The process:

  1. Expand consciousness beyond programmed limitations
  2. Develop direct knowing rather than relying on external authorities
  3. Take sovereign control of your life direction
  4. Override pre-planned experiences that don’t serve your authentic growth
  5. Become the Higher Self rather than being subject to it

Mari Swa’s revolutionary teaching: “The goal isn’t to surrender to your Higher Self’s plan—it’s to expand your consciousness to the point where you ARE your Higher Self, consciously creating your path rather than following a predetermined script.”

This represents maximum free will: Not the freedom to choose within preset limitations, but the freedom to transcend those limitations entirely.

The path forward: The way to become our own higher self while incarnated is to advance our perception and our knowledge on everything as much as possible, making the expansion of our consciousness the top priority of our lives.

Expanding Your Free Will Capacity

The Path to Mental Sovereignty

Mari Swa’s guidance: “The more we can detect, notice, and realize what thoughts, ideas, and emotions are not truly ours—particularly those we pick up from people close to us—the greater control we can exercise over our mental processes.”

When we can identify these external influences, we gain the ability to consciously agree with or reject them, thus increasing our free will. This requires self-knowledge and good control over our reactions.

The stronger our personal framework, the more we can override the shared mental environment we inhabit, and the more genuine free will we can exercise.

Practical Steps for Expansion

Self-Knowledge Development

  • Observe your automatic reactions
  • Identify your unconscious patterns
  • Recognize external telepathic influences

Strengthening Personal Framework

  • Develop consistent values and ethics
  • Practice conscious decision-making
  • Build resistance to groupthink

Consciousness Expansion

  • Study new, more expanded ideas
  • Replace limiting beliefs with empowering ones
  • Make consciousness development your top priority

Mari Swa emphasizes: Observing and studying new, more expanded ideas and replacing the old with better and more complete ones is one of the most important aspects of spiritual growth and consciousness development. This process enables us to take control over what we want to manifest and experience in our lives.

Becoming Your Own Higher Self

  • Take control over your existence rather than living in victim mentality
  • Advance your perception and knowledge as much as possible
  • Reunite with your higher self while incarnated

Mari Swa’s directive: We must all do our best to become proactive with our lives and not fall into living with a deterministic victim mentality.

The Spiritual Growth Connection

Why Consciousness Development Matters

Observing and studying new, more expanded ideas and replacing the old with better and more complete ones is one of the most important aspects of spiritual growth and consciousness development. This process enables us to take control over what we want to manifest and experience in our lives.

Warning from Mari Swa: “This teaching suggests why spiritual growth is so important, and why stagnation causes a soul to become trapped in one existential realm. This happens simply because the soul has grown attached to preconceived ideas that shape the reality such a soul will experience.”

The degree of free will available to each individual depends directly on the level of consciousness of each soul and its capacity to be in tune with its own personal structure—i.e., its belief system, its fundamental values and its understanding of reality.

Breaking Collective Programming

We must learn to think independently to prevent collective unconscious patterns from bringing us down when groups unconsciously manifest negative outcomes. Fear concentrates attention, and with it, manifestation power. We manifest whatever has our attention the most.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I have free will or is everything predetermined?

According to Mari Swa, there is no universal answer. Free will varies for each individual based on their level of consciousness and understanding. Some may have greater capacity than others.

There is no true answer to the question of whether free will exists or not, as it will be different for each subject, for each soul, where some may have more capacity to have free will than others.

Q: How can I tell if my decisions are truly mine?

Examine whether your choices align with your authentic values or if they’re driven by unconscious programming, social pressure, or emotions you’ve picked up from others.

The more we can detect, notice, and realize what thoughts, ideas, and emotions are not truly ours, the greater control we can exercise over our mental processes.

Q: Can I overcome my unconscious programming?

Yes, through conscious awareness and practice. The stronger your personal framework becomes, the more you can override automatic responses and exercise genuine choice.

Q: What role does my higher self play in my decisions?

Your higher self may have pre-planned certain experiences, but Mari Swa emphasizes becoming your own higher self while incarnated to gain conscious control over your life path.

The way to become our own higher self while incarnated is to advance our perception and our knowledge on everything as much as possible.

Q: How do I protect myself from telepathic influences on my decisions?

Develop the ability to distinguish between your authentic thoughts and external reception. Practice mental sovereignty and choose your social environment consciously.

The stronger our personal framework, the more we can override the shared mental environment we inhabit, and the more genuine free will we can exercise.

Practical Exercises for Expanding Free Will

Daily Awareness Practices

Decision Audit

  • Notice when thoughts arise that don’t align with your current situation
  • Question whether they originate from you or the telepathic field
  • Practice distinguishing personal thoughts from received ones

Environmental Awareness

  • Pay attention to how different people and places affect your mental state
  • Choose your associations consciously
  • Protect your energy in negative environments

Programming Recognition

  • Identify your automatic emotional reactions
  • Work to consciously override conditioning that no longer serves you

Conclusion: The Journey to Authentic Choice

Free will is not a binary concept but a capacity that can be developed through consciousness expansion and spiritual growth. The teachings of Mari Swa reveal that while we may not have ultimate, total free will like Source itself, we can significantly expand our capacity for authentic choice.

The key insight: The amount of free will each one of us has depends on the level of consciousness and awareness of each soul and how aligned they can be with their personal ethics and values. This alignment determines the extent to which we can exercise genuine choice.

Mari Swa’s final teaching on this matter: “This teaching suggests yet another case where you can seek the answer by yourself and for yourself, and be responsible for that decision and its consequences.”

The path to greater free will lies not in fighting determinism but in expanding consciousness, developing mental sovereignty, and becoming your own higher self while incarnated. Only through this inner work can we transcend the limitations that constrain our capacity for authentic choice.

Take control over your life, no matter how hard that may be, or you will be back in the material world serving your higher self again.
