Allan Kardec. The book of spirits (№ 397433)

Question: is There fate, inevitability in the events of life in the sense that usually attach to that word, that is, whether all events are predetermined and that in this case, is freedom of will?
Answer: Fate is only in the choice of what did the spirit incarnated in a particular body, because it needs to be depending on that of your choice to withstand certain tests. They chose the test, he creates for himself a kind of new destiny, which is a consequence of the position in which it is located; I'm talking about the physical test for that which concerns the moral trials and temptations, the spirit of preserving the freedom of his will towards good or evil, are always free to give in to temptation or to resist. Any good spirit, seeing that he's getting weaker, can come to his aid, but cannot influence him to subdue his will itself. Evil, that is, inferior spirit, showing him in every way and in front of him, exaggerating physical danger, can bring him out of balance and intimidate; but the will of the embodied spirit is still free from any bondage.
