My(elementary) proof: Why a sage will have no free will.
As Epictetus will tell: Inevitables are never good nor bad, good and bad only lie in our (human) will.
As Nietzsche will tell: Only a weak man (salmon) will of made the distinctions good and bad.
A sage, not being a weak man, will enter into any given situation with no distinction for it being good nor bad. No matter the case, the sage will act to the best of his abilities in the given situation, for it is the one and only route a true sage shall take. Therefore the sage will only have one course of action in any given situation, the sage does not have free will. Will the sage need free will to respond to the situation? No, he only has one route of action. Then, is free will needed to any individual?
