Hey you!! Seeker of freedom! What makes you strive?
Why does this freedom give you pride
Is it freedom that makes you chase every need
Freedom that feeds on gluttonous greed
Is it freedom that makes you ravage in lust
Freedom to breach somebody’s trust
Is it freedom that makes you kill in violent anger
Freedom to cheat an innocent stranger
Is it freedom that makes you grab the other's land
Freedom to enslave another man
Is it freedom that makes you instill in any mind, hatred and divisions of every kind
If so friendly seeker, your freedom I despise
For its nothing more but another vice
Oh listen friend; don’t you mind
True freedom is of a different kind
It arises from within and not without
It is both of action and of thought
It is the freedom arising from cognitive choice
It speaks a language and with a different voice
It is freedom to choose right over wrong; and compassion over anger
Love over Lust ; and meaning over pleasure
It is freedom to choose between now and then; and now and tomorrow
Not being bogged down by anxiety or sorrow
It is the freedom to walk without being driven by desire
Freedom that makes you grow spiritually higher
It’s the freedom that makes you over come craving and attachment
Freedom to enlighten the minds darkened compartments
It is freedom to see beyond the egocentric world
To the world of free thought and mindful action filled with love and infinite compassion
To this true freedom my friend I invite thee ; feel the love and set yourself free
