OM DENNE EPISODE
If we take a view our lives couldn't ever have been otherwise, how will this affect the way we reflect and anticipate? Does it equally degrade our achievements and console us about disappointments? And how do we proceed if intimidated by a universe whose path we perhaps can't disrupt?
After previous episodes focused on distinctly 'societal' concerns, this finale goes for the personal and considers how a deterministic worldview will influence the way we navigate our own stories. Athletes, octogenarians, philosophers, and meditation experts bring unique perspectives.
