I was unable to take a proper evening nap after binge reading for the entire afternoon. My eyes was still too awake, I was unable to close my spiritual eyes desperately searching for truth.
Because of that, I saw that there are three Freedoms that allows one to actualize their highest potentials and become the greatest human beings they can ever become. I shall call these Freedoms, as the Freedom to love, the Freedom to be, and the Freedom to explore.
The most popular of all Freedoms, is the Freedom to love. Sometimes called the Freedom to connect, this freedom gives one the power to connect and converse with any human being regardless of all differences. It encompasses the freedom to be cringe, where one is freely able to become affectionate and intimate with anyone without trespassing any personal boundaries.
Thus, those with this freedom are able to freely give highest possible love to anyone that transcends all socio-cultural norms and traditions. Their love is not one based on discrimination, rather it is an impartial love that treats everyone the same way, without showing any form of possession or favoritism.
This is why those with this freedom are said to have the highest of virtues, for it completely changes the way they do things, the way they explore the world, and the way they express themselves — for they fill everything with love. In all action, they move with grace, in all intentions, they're completely pure. This is the freedom to love.
If I were to have this freedom, then I'll never fear being seen as cringe or emotional anymore, and everything I do will be filled with sincerity. I will be so virtuous that a halo would appear in my head and everyone around me would be calling me a saint. I will be treating those around me with utmost respect and affection, simply because I am.
The most difficult of all Freedoms, this is the Freedom to be. More specifically, it is the freedom to express one's true self, to show one's true colors regardless of public image and practical consequences. It is also called the Freedom of Truth, for anyone who wields such freedom will never deceive themselves nor lie to anyone anymore.
Thus, those with this freedom do not hesitate to express and show themselves to the world, whatever they may be. Furthermore, they cannot be forced to conform or do anything that is against their will, they do not bend to anyone's whims and live their lives fully without hiding or fearing anything in the world. They freely reveal their imperfections and vulnerabilities to others, completely accepting themselves and the world.
Staying true to themselves and their purpose, their Will doesn't falter in the face of humiliation, suffering, and death. In everything they do, they pour all their hearts into it, sharing themselves to the world. Because their authenticity knows no limits, they forge their own path and live a life that they can truly call as their own. This is the Freedom to be.
If I were to have this Freedom, I will probably find myself singing and dancing wherever I go, proudly using my own voice and creating my own moves. I will be able to communicate and interact with anyone regardless of their differences, freely speaking my mind and offering my ideas to the world. I will be happy to tell others my weakness and emotions, enjoying my life as an imperfect human being. Regardless of how painful and inconvenient life may become, I will not deceive myself or conform to anyone for the sake of temporary relief, simply because I am.
Behold, my favorite Freedom! This is the most controversial Freedom in the world as it involves experimenting with the results, it is also the most dangerous Freedom as it is about exploring the consequences. Sometimes called as the Freedom of Adventure, this Freedom lets people play with fire and traverse the unknown lands for the sake of new discoveries.
Thus, those with this freedom excitedly explores the world and interacts with unknown elements to gain new experiences. The darkest of the caves and the deepest of the underground are not the only things they explore, but also the vast accumulated knowledge in this world found through books and internet. There is no limit to what they can explore, this includes the experiences of other people and their emotional reactions to certain things.
One of the most interesting things to explore is the human mind and the human heart, for they contain such mysterious that cannot be found for even thousands of generations. Even if these people were to be somehow physically unable to explore or when they're locked in a certain place, their freedom to explore cannot be stopped for their minds would be searching for truth by squeezing every knowledge within their memories and imagination. This is the Freedom to explore.
If I were to have this Freedom, I will happily explore the fun consequences of supposed bad decisions. I will learn everything I want to learn the hard way, through experience itself. I will experience how it feels to be homeless. I will find out for myself what will happen if I were to do certain activities in certain ways. I will be adopting a stray cat without hesitating. I will be interviewing ten thousand online people to inherit their unique experiences and perspectives.
When we combine these Freedoms with each other, the range of possibilities we can reach becomes exponentially higher as we become able to do greater things.
Supposed that we combined the Freedom to love with the Freedom to be, can you imagine what will happen? We will still be able to freely express ourselves and say whatever we want, except we are now more respectful to others about it. This is in no way a limitation of Freedom but rather an expansion of it, for we will be able to express our love with infinite number of ways. We will be able to love ourselves and our own imperfections, being understanding of others while not compromising any part of ourselves.
What about we combine the Freedom to love with the Freedom to explore? Then all our explorations will be filled with love and care that the adventures will not be as dangerous anymore. Because we love ourselves and others, we will not be reckless and bringing unnecessary harm to ourselves during any explorations. Thus, we will not be poisoned by the obsession of results as we take our time to slowly, carefully, and passionately explore and appreciate the world we live in.
For the last double combination, we can combine the Freedom to be with the Freedom to explore. When this happens, our explorations will become so much vaster and colorful, as the world will happily respond to our own honesty and sincerity by showing us its deepest secrets, through which we will learn the ultimate truth about ourselves and the hidden truth about this world. Likewise, we will be able to form deeper connections with other people, as humans find it easier to be comfortable with those who are comfortable with themselves.
After all that, the only thing left would be to combine all three Freedoms. What do you think will happen if we combine the Freedom to love, Freedom to be, and the Freedom to explore? Can you even begin to imagine, to comprehend the sheer scale and magnitude of such Freedom?
This is the Ultimate Freedom, the Freedom that transcends all limitations and boundaries, one that is beyond all forms of duality and non-duality, surpassing infinity and eternity itself. This Freedom, by its very nature, is indescribable. No amount of words or mastery of language can even elaborate a hundredth of that freedom. Even ten million books will not be able to explain it in its entirety. Regardless, for the sake of this article, the author will attempt to give a basic explanation of this Freedom.
Supposed that you have attained this Ultimate Freedom, what will happen? Then you will be like a fire so powerful that it quickly spreads throughout the world. You may not be known by everyone yet your love will be felt in every corner of the world. Anyone who is touched with your gentle flames will be free from their afflictions, anyone who heard voice will become a free person.
Having all three Freedoms, your Will is going to automatically align with the Will of the universe. You will become one with the universe and nothing will be hidden to you. Thus, you will be successful in everything you do. You will be so bright like a new star being born in the galaxy, where all of your actions becomes supported by the universe, and every movement you take is an expression of infinity.
Your entire being will be the Truth itself. Nothing in the world will be able to evade your Understanding. Wherever you go, you will be protected by the robe of Wisdom. Your existence alone nurtures the earth and illuminates the darkest corners of this world.
At this point, not even death cannot take your freedom. You will be free for eternity, beyond the confines of time and space. Your legacy will survive forever, it will be felt by all future generations.
"No price is too expensive for Freedom."
"Honesty is like a clean mirror through which you can see who you really are."
"Don't forget: virtue, expression, and results; character, action, and consequences; how, who, and what."
