Deep dives

Understand the Concept of Freedom

The podcast delves into the notion of freedom and the different levels of restrictions individuals may face. While natural laws dictate how things work, society's laws enforce regulations, and personal rules are self-imposed. The speaker highlights that personal rules are created early in life and are enforced internally through learned behaviors. By recognizing and questioning these self-imposed rules, individuals can experience a shift towards discernment and a sense of real-time intelligence, leading to a life guided by internal wisdom rather than fear of breaking arbitrary rules.
