Summary
Is it freedom when you are free from something?
Freedom is a state of mind so intensely active, vigorous, that it throws away every form of dependence, slavery, conformity and acceptance.
Does the mind want freedom?
The state of solitude, aloneness, can only come about in freedom from the psychological structure of society of which we are and have built through our reactions.
A main feature of fear is the non-acceptance of what one is.
Are freedom and solitude to be come upon through time?
Can one be conscious of freedom?
Is the mind aware of fear at the deeper levels?
There is only a total fear, not fragmented fears.
