Striving for Freedom and the Illusion of Slavery
Many individuals strive for external freedom, such as achieving wealth and success, believing it will grant them true freedom. However, this quest for external freedom often leads to becoming internal slaves to desires and indulgences. Acquiring wealth may seem like freedom, but in reality, it can enslave individuals to their internal desires, leading to dissatisfaction and unhappiness. People who seek external freedom end up binding themselves to internal slavery, indulging in desires without true fulfillment. The key to breaking free from this cycle is mastering one's internal environment, understanding that true freedom comes from within rather than from external circumstances.
