What is freedom? Children imagine how nice it would be to be an adult: you are free to drive a car or even operate a plane, do everything that you want. They think that being an adult means to be free, because you not depend on mom and dad. Before you is the whole wide-open world, you not need to go to school and kill time sitting in the class until a bell rings. A child thinks that adults can do whatever they want, not what he, the poor one, which is constantly nagged that he needs to wash himself, eat, and sleep. He does not understand that as an adult, things will be much worse.

Similarly, the world must envision what it means to become free. A well-known phrase says: «Only the dead are free», ie, a selfish desire dies and then the person becomes free.

What does it mean to be free? This means that you know the laws of nature and learn to perform them precisely. This is good for you, so you want this! Through this you feel that you identify yourself with, merge and unite with the Creator – with the same force of nature.

Does anyone in this world think that his actions are not his actions, his thoughts – not his thoughts, his desires – not his desires? In reality, we are all managed by the force of nature – in our heart, in our mind, and in all our actions and deeds. Of course, it is already known in advance what will happen with everybody.

We are simply not aware of this and so we believe that we are free. What is our freedom? We don’t see the true picture and remain in complete darkness, in other words, we do not feel the strings by which we are pulled from above – and we feel that condition as being free. The lack of that complete vision we call freedom.
