My question is 'a free individual can only exercise free will'. We necessarily depends upon many for fulfilling our needs.For instance, parents, brothers, wife, children, friends, collegues, driver, dry cleaner, waiters in restaurants, etc. We are not able to stop the thinking mind. It runs always endlessly. The external influences of the outer world plus the internal influences, viz., desires, anger, emotion, aim of life, economy, comforts make you crazy. In addition society, etiquette, religious beliefs etc bear their influence upon you. With all these can you assert you are free and possess a 'free will' to stear you. without any influence or affluence.
