The Parallel Universe

If you end up dying from diabetes in the future, it's because of what you're doing in the present. You can change that future by what you do now. It would be more or less a matter of transferring to your consciousness into a parallel multiverse where the future is different. So back to Schopenhauer, he said we all have this underlining thing called will and it's our desire that keeps us suffering. And if you hear that, you think, okay, that's basically Buddhism, right? Just with extra steps, right?
