Freedom

Achieving it through your own efforts

August 28th 2023

You want to be free and independent, but at the same time, you always want others to think of you and help you, and even to act and work in your place. Well, it is time you understood that if you really want to be free, you must learn not to count too much on the help of others. Other people have their own worries and problems, and they will think of you one day and forget you the next. And even if everybody were always ready to help you, you would still feel that something was missing. Why? Because you cannot get what you truly need from someone else, you must work to get it for yourself. What you need most is to become more sensible, stronger, more patient and enlightened – in other words, freer. Only you can achieve this through your own efforts.*

Freedom is the privilege of the spirit: when it rules in us then we can claim to be free. For this we must learn to reestablish the true hierarchy within us and become king of ourselves. It is through the light of our mind that our feelings, thoughts, instincts and desires are then obeyed.
