True Freedom

True freedom is the freedom 
beyond the shackles of the physical self
when the consciousness is not curtailed
by the inability of the body,
when thoughts do not encounter
the limitations of human laws  
or doctrines of half baked religious wisdom.
when purity of thought is judged 
not by fear of punishment 
but in the total honesty of its universal value!
when feelings are not tethered to the self
but have a vision of the whole,
where ego ceases to be because it 
has merged with the greater consciousness!
when you do not wait for tomorrow 
for it will never be because
yesterday never was.
True freedom is when now is now
and the only voice is silence!
there are no commands
and you flow confluent with 
the boundless truth
that you always were 
but have now realised!
