Ordinarily, when we talk about freedom we mean freedom from something, freedom for something, or the freedom to choose something. Freedom from, for, or to is not real freedom, they are still limited by the mind, and the mind is the major thing that we need to be free of. My own understanding is that real freedom is the freedom to be – to be your own authentic self. It is the freedom to be choiceless and to surrender to existence. Therefore if you want to be totally free, then don’t choose one way or the other – just be aware and don’t choose. The moment you choose, you have lost your total freedom, you are left with only a part. If you remain choiceless, your freedom remains total. There is only one way to be totally free and that is choiceless awareness. Everything else is limited.
Love and light.
