“Freedom is involved in this process in two distinct ways. Firstly, it will be freedom in its dynamic aspect – the innate human desire for freedom – that will act as the battering ram to destroy the current system. Freedom here takes the form of energy, life-force, creating the possibility of transformation. Secondly, when the various blockages and delusions which imprison us have been cleared away, freedom in its permanent fullness will then be able to flourish”.
Paul Cudenec, Forms of Freedom
The urge for political freedom is all very well. If I lived in a dictatorship I hope I’d struggle for that kind of freedom. However, the inner struggle to be a better human being is much more difficult but necessary – it’s often said that the evils of the world would disappear if everyone put the’ golden rule’ into practice.
