Fatalism, determinism and pre-determinism (Niyativāda) are the terms generally used interchangeably. Fatalism is a philosophical doctrine stressing the subjugation of all events or actions to fate. Determinism, in philosophy, implies that all events, including moral choices, are completely determined by previously existing causes. Pre-determinism, a specific type of determinism, articulates that every single event or effect is caused by an uninterrupted chain of events that goes back to the origin of the universe.
