What is freedom?


People live thinking that freedom in the human world is living with no physical constraints or restrictions. However, true freedom is when you live your life having escaped from your mind. This is true freedom. The life you live after having become free from yourself is the life of nirvana and true freedom.


When the past self disappears and you are born as Truth, there are no constraints or restrictions and it is the ultimate freedom.


It is freedom because you exist, yet you do not exist. It is only when you reach nirvana that you have ultimate freedom.


True Freedom and Liberation


True Freedom


When one sheds his own mind,

and comes to have the True Mind,

it is true freedom.

Casting off one’s self and becoming Truth

is liberation, which is freedom.

When you do not exist, and you become Truth,

Truth sets you free -

it is the world of Truth, a world of never-changing eternal life,

it is the complete world of Truth.

Everything in the world is eternal and never-changing

because when there is no self,

it is a world of great freedom,

a world where one lives freely for all eternity.

This is the world of Truth, and a complete world.

When man becomes Truth,

and the world exists in man,

when man becomes Truth,

and Truth exists in man,

everyone becomes one,

and this land is Heaven and the world of eternal life.

When one is reborn as the Truth that is the Creator,

everyone lives;

everyone is alive.
