Freedom Is...

Freedom is that triumphant state of consciousness that is beyond the influence of desire. The mind ceases to thirst for anything it has seen or heard of; even what is promised in the scriptures.

And supreme freedom is that complete liberation from the world of change that comes of knowing the unbound Self.

-The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, 1:15-16

    Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose,
    And nothing don ’t mean nothing, honey, if it ain ’t free.
