Summary

This quote emphasizes that freedom is not something external that can be obtained or given to us by others, but rather a state of mind that is internally cultivated. It suggests that true freedom comes from within, through personal growth, self-awareness, and a conscious choice to break free from limiting beliefs and societal expectations. It highlights the importance of individual agency and self-transformation in attaining genuine freedom, rather than relying on external factors or circumstances to dictate our sense of liberation.

To be sure, this requires effort and love, a careful cultivation of the spiritual life, and a watchful, honest, active oversight of all one's mental attitudes towards things and people. It is not to be learned by world-flight, running away from things, turning solitary and going apart from the world. Rather, one must learn an inner solitude, where or with whomsoever he may be. He must learn to penetrate things and find God there, to get a strong impression of God firmly fixed on his mind.
