Deep dives

Living Free from Laws

The podcast highlights a concept where individuals could live free from the constraints of following laws if they genuinely did not desire to contravene them. For instance, if one's inner disposition aligns with not lying or stealing, they transcend the need for rules against these actions. By recognizing the intrinsic value of each person and embracing a profound understanding of humanity, individuals can liberate themselves from the limitations imposed by laws, thereby living authentically without the need for external regulations.
