TL;DR
Destiny is the automatically predestined chain or course of events spread throughout the universe that originated from the first cosmic event called the Big Bang. It automatically determined when, where and exactly what would happen in the future through cause and effect, interaction etc.
Can you please express this theory mathematically or through equations?

Destiny is the automatically predestined chain or course of events spread throughout the universe that originated from the first cosmic event called the Big Bang. It automatically determined when, where and exactly what would happen in the future through cause and effect, interaction etc.

Here's an example to make it easier to understand:

A Gambling wheel, after some time of turning, one of the numbers on the edge of the wheel comes to a stop in front of its indicator fork.
Now, my theory is that the moment the wheel is turned, it is automatically determined when, at what number, the wheel will stop.

My point here is that regardless of the condition of the wheel, the speed of rotation and the surrounding weather, if no other external force is applied, then in each case the future of the wheel will be determined as soon as it turns. It has to be expressed mathematically.

This idea is called determinism. You can find posts about it here: https://www.physicsforums.com/tags/determinism/

Determinism appears to be inconsistent with our current understanding of the universe, as quantum mechanical processes are thought to be inherently random.

(Note that we will not allow discussion of personal theories at PhysicsForums.)
