How to become a free person?
Dear friends! In most cases, the planet is dominated by a totalitarian consciousness, rooted in the hierarchical structure of life. It is not a source of thought processes, quite the contrary, the idea of a hierarchical life-structure forms a space of understanding between the ears that is carried by people in communities, in the physical world.
The idea of freedom in this case is negative as freedom from ... society, family, police, the Kremlin, propaganda and other violence, characteristic for the relations of domination-subordination, which is the foundation of hierarchical structures.
This concept of freedom, the great and mighty Russian language correctly calls will. For such "freedom" people were killed not less than for all religious wars. If the person with the brain, where the main idea is domination-submission, begins to tell you about freedom and call for the immediate destruction of all who are against - it's time to flee the country.
For obvious reasons, this has nothing to do with the notion of freedom. The trouble is that a person has basic needs that need to be satisfied and this makes him always not free in physical space. But there is good news, a person forms the environment in which he lives.
What your brain has conceived, then you implement. You will think about the good, about happiness and love, the whole world will be painted in bright colors and your feelings will respond in all surrounding subject, and your smile will reflect from many hearts and return to you, an avalanche of good feelings.
Judge for yourself: Saturday, evening. Go out with neighbors to the street, collect garbage, canine and crochet peck. Then sit on the bench and sing the guitar that you like, drink a cold beer and smile to everyone who looks at you. Next time the whole house will be with you.
So a comfortable environment is formed. Everything depends on us. So where to look for lost freedom?
Once it is not in the physical world, we will search in the metaphysical! The Greek philosophers decided the most complete and incomprehensible for understanding this, the relay was intercepted by Mrasel Proust.
I have not met deeper and more fundamental reflections from anyone. One American philosopher in general challenged the whole modern world, saying that all modern philosophy is a miserable commentary on Plato's philosophy. I completely agree with him, I'm afraid that thousands of years will be needed to understand his heritage.
The reasoning is very simple.
"Look at that man, can we say that he's a free man?"
- Of course! He has property wealth, minits 0.1 cue a day, drives a sports car, lives in a good microdistrict, wife / husband of beauties / a, children are well-groomed.
-Please take a closer look, you do not see anything else?
-Yes, everything is wonderful in his life!
-You do not see how his former experiences went into the surrounding objects and cry out to him from the darkness of his past, without giving him peace of mind and peace? Do you see how difficult his step is? How did the pieces of his soul sprout from each of his legs a kilometer into the earth? They keep his soul, his thoughts and determine each of his next steps? Look at his head, is that sticking out round that rests against the moon? Oh, yes, these are pathos paralyzing and controlling his thought process. He can not get out of pathos! This they determine his life! He is a slave of his past actions and his pathos! What kind of a free man is he ?! Well, something like this.
What to do?
The gray wolf asked the woman-yaga.
Yes, everything is very simple. You are free only when you commit an act that puts your life at stake. To give birth to new thoughts, different from existing ones, you need to risk yourself, your self-identification. To go to the square and say that it's impossible to live like this, Russia should be free, Crimea is not ours, we can not kill Ukrainians and Syrians, we need to join the European Union for economic growth, and for the country's security it is necessary to integrate into NATO structures.
We need gunpowder in the flasks and berries in the buttocks. Just go out and collect garbage near the house and then take risks with your ghostly status. Is it weak?
The coolest thing is, when you do all this, you stop being a free person. Freedom is not a property and not a quality, but a state, a state of risk. While you are in it, you are in a state of freedom, because as a result you are not predictable, you are at the point of bifurcation, of choice. The state is over - freedom has ended. This constant effort, which must be kept by all of its being, it gives rise to another, new state, only then does man begin to live.
