Illusions and Free Will.

Where it's said that "Free Will is an Illusion", it can be a mistake to regard all actions as thus essentially mechanical, robotic, and without soul or connection to the greater reality at large. Choice is associated with observations, and from science we know that a limit to the precision of observations is built-in to the very physics of the observable universe, viz. "Planck's Constant".

Planck's constant implies that any measurement can only aim towards precision, yet never attain this. This fundamental inexactness is a requirement for perceptions, which lead to questions about Free Will, to exist at all.

Depending on how we regard this fundamental error in our observational capacity, we can see it as a "limit" and thus some deficiency culminating in an assessment of "man as robot" or "man as illusion"; or else we can see it as revealing the necessary link between our observations, and the intrinsic and universal nature of a fundamental "inexactness" offering the possibility of observations and questions about "Free Will" existing at all.

We can't exist as questioning beings without this fundamental "error" related to Planck's constant making measurement possible at all, while the logic (Quantum Information Theory) describing Quantum Mechanics attests to the fundamentally "empty" (Zero entropy) nature of the observable reality, as does even contemporary Physics (conservation of energy), tho it's not equipped to describe this or why? beyond pronouncing it as a law of physics (which it is, but again, why?

Perceptions, including exacting scientific observations, require a "trialic" formality amounting to "theory/object/observer". This form is inherent to any observational qualities including "Planck's constant". Informational content whatsoever breaks down and is nonexistent in any quantum system where content is self-contained into a non-trialic structure. Even a duality can't exist in the quantum informational sense since it would be "informational" and require at least 3 operators, meaning 2 to be measured (out) (theory & object) and one to measure (observer).

Without this fundamental "error" of "Planck's Constant" built-in to the system, no "trialic" systemization can exist, and thus nothing approximating perception can exist, as disciples of Zen can attest.
