Freedom – Part 5 - God, the most free, is sleeping unknown and insignificant. Like our great mother India is ......


Freedom is not in your being
Known and significant.

God, the most free, the truth,
Is sleeping unknown and insignificant.

To be known and significant is
To be defined and confined.
                        
To be unknown and insignificant is
To be free, being undefined or unconfined.

That is how our great mother India is 
And its masters are.

Free, being unknown and insignificant,
Knowing, and being significant to, the whole,
In its fullness and helpfulness passively
Being undefined and unconfined.

********************

Freedom is not a thing that is asked for.
It is dug in and found in oneself.

Freedom is not a thing that one can fight for.
It is when one has not to fight with
And when no one is there to fight with.

Freedom is when one has not to conflict and rebel.
It is in one’s harmony with self and all.

Freedom is in openness and it will make one
To be floating in and with the flow of changes
That it won’t make one stand stagnant and confined.

Freedom is purely personal. 
Neither social nor national.
One can’t avail freedom
Because the society or nation is free.

Freedom is freedom from self,
Its wants and need as well.

It is your freedom from having 
To possess or consume for no limit.
Freedom will not increase 
One’s wants and needs.

Freedom is a thing that is
Given and taken by oneself
And never given by any other.

Freedom is there when
No one to preside over and permit.
It is not that one can enjoy 
With others’ permission.

Freedom is that can’t wait 
For the world to be quiet.
No ocean is ever pacified, 
Except in name.
Those which live in it, 
Live with all the freedom.

Freedom is that which coincides 
With independence.
More you depend, 
Less your freedom is.
Less you depend,
More your freedom is.

Freedom is not that is 
Physical and by physic.
Freedom is freedom from
Your physic and its covers too.

Freedom is your freedom
From preset understandings and attitudes.

One may be sick or in prison, 
Physically depending.
Still one can be and will be free.
Freedom is the freedom of one’s self-reliance
Self reliance of his mindset.

The way to the freedom is
The way of independence,
The path of no dependence.
The path of lesser and least needs.
