Listen "EP17 Freedom"
Episode Synopsis
Since we are currently in a time when our freedoms are seemingly being taken away it may be interesting to talk about freedom.What is freedom? Are we free? Can we become free? We start by talking about the common association of freedom with the freedom to do what we want. We talk about what seems to be involved when the have freedoms "taken away" from us. We look at how freedoms are taken through overt violence, in non overt ways, and in different manipulative ways.We briefly talk about how government tend to use fear to manipulate us. Then we talk about how our character structure is restrictive when based on developmental trauma.Indeed most situations involving freedoms taken away also involve fear. And so we ask if it is possible to become more free by working on the fear. We talk about how true fearlessness is total freedom and also illumination.We then talk about different ways of working with our own fears.Finally we end by realising that, actually, we are always free, and our freedom can never really be taken away, we just need to find a way of seeing this.If you have any comments, questions, or suggestions for the podcast you can contact me on Instagram @BasiasThoughts.
