FREEDOM


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
