So…I was wondering just how much autonomy these characters really have even in the Shadow world because they keep repeating lines from their past…Like Dan Oh at the end of today’s epi #ExtraYou

    We have been here for 1000s of years.. and yet go through same set of emotions in similar situations..

    were born with it, live with it

        There was a scientific paper published (will have to hunt for details) about collective human cognizance

        In nutshell, it said, when a human is born, he is born with this inherent knowledge that guides the basic human principles of life which literally haven’t changed in eons

        Something like DNA

          Interesting. In my religion (Islam) we believe that Allah (God) summoned all of humanity at once before creating the world and that He showed us what’s going to happen, and that’s what deja vu is (our soul remembering something from those moments that were shown to us.)

            hmm.. i don’t believe in existence of 1 god/supreme entity… faith is a different thing..

            and the reason being, gods’ seem to have shelf life.
            No religion exists since start of this universe.. as societies change new religion and new gods come up..

            but that’s an interesting mythology
            wonder what other religions say.. but i think broadly it comes to action-reaction theory of hinduism (and a version of it in other religions wherein basically.. if you don’t behave xyz will happen)
