Freedom is inside of you, do it now, let her out.

Freedom and slavery are hard to see sometimes. Both are a product of desire and the lack of it. If I measured my freedom levels right now, I could not be sure of their value. So, I will guess. The choices I make are often around love and money and I feel like a slave to them. The kind of slave who gets to live in the King’s Castle as a servant but never partakes in what they see.

My finances are terrible because I choose how I make my money: the artist’s choice, maybe the monk’s choice too, to create what I want, live a frugal life and avoid (in a mostly positive way) responsibilities projected on me. This way I have one foot in disappointment and another in my dreams. Yes, it’s a compromise that keeps me alive.

I did not like school at all, so I didn’t participate. Sometimes I went surfing and other times I slept with my head on the desk. Much the same as now, decades later, when I try to learn Grammar rules. My right sided brain cannot participate in details and data.

At the age of 16 I decided to eat only Chinese food and luckily my parents gave me the $2 I needed every night to eat a large plate of fried rice, with 4 dim sims circling the rice, smothered in chili sauce. Dims sims, surfing and blues music were my freedom, growing up in the ‘Western District’. Now, my freedom is writing, enlightening and helping. No matter how desperate I feel, tears behind my eyes, I can find the same everlasting mantra that works for me: save the world.

Somehow, I have saved myself at least three times, so I feel worthy to pass on my quiet, and humble triumphancy to you. Yep, you. I am old and have  suffered a few hospital visiting motorcycle accidents, surgeries in hospital, being called up for the war in Vietnam, burying dead dogs in the garden under a full Moon, saying goodbye to my first and second wives, my father, mother and brother and spiritual black holes.

I have also suffered the realisations of my stupidity, selfishness, ignorance and foolishness. 

I have a natural affinity with research, especially health research: books about Covid-19 and Cancer. But I am not, like I said, good with details. I prefer to precis and summarise and leave the rest to the scientists. These precis usually do come from a lot of reading first.

You may ask what has this got to do with freedom?

Covid-19 mandates and passports and camps are the greatest threat to our freedom, before actual death. The pandemic highlights just how much the Swamp, Technocrats, Big tech and Big Pharmacy, the Banks and the Rothchild’s and, and, play their game of Thrones while we allow them to do it, from under their feet.

Back to the highlighting. Because Big Tech is silencing democratic debate and acting like agents for the Chinese Communist Party many people are waking up and fighting back, mainly with information = the truth.

How have I woken up?

I never trusted most Doctors and now I think most of them are assholes. I also never trusted hospitals and same outcome as doctors. Politicians used to be pretty useless now they are corrupt and rich. Teachers bored me stupid and now I say, if you don’t love your job, knowledge and the students, get the fuck out of my school. I never went to church, willingly as a child, but I did go to weddings and funerals. I never understood the bible, mainly because one half is Jewish and the other half Christian, two completely different religions.  Also there was Constantine, and myths, and contradictions, and blood, and free will, and punishment. Sometime in my troubled spiritual life I finally accepted it didn’t make any sense, followed a Hindu guru for a week and saw the truth with my own eyes, not a preacher’s or monks or cardinals.

This gave me the ‘God is within’ kind of freedom that has stayed, stuck, in a beloved way. I don’t have to burn witches, kill black people or sing songs.

Spiritual freedom is the bedrock of all freedoms. The moment you are spiritually free (there is still karma) you can rebuild your life from within to without and anywhere you want. You can understand that God did not create the universe, the universe is God. Because we are part of the Universe then we have to be God too. Phew, take a breath, now you are free. Free of dogma, limitations, brain washing and psychological chains. Maybe there is some truth in the bible here and there and the Koran and other spiritual books but it doesn’t matter. If you peacefully abide with yourself and loved ones you are more inside God than you could ever imagine: many religious people are thieves, murders, cheaters and plain evil.

Another example:  if you cannot love and take care of yourself, your partner, your children, your family, your parents, the animals near to you, your environment and the universe you are not spiritual or religious in any way, you are a god damned fake.

Okay so spiritual freedom gives you the freedom to be good, happy and peaceful. It can also introduce all the plants growing around you that can freely cure most diseases.

Once you are free to believe in your inner self you can go out into the community and help others. The homeless, the lonely, the poor and the crazy. Now you understand we are all one, part of the universe, somehow separate and one at the same time. Like ten brothers in the same family going out into the world. One a builder, another a healer etc.

Just like charity begins at home so does freedom. Find yourself, know what it wants, and act on its purpose. Everything else will become noise.

If you feel financially imprisoned, stop borrowing money, and buying shit you don’t need, and save money for a rainy day. Bartering can be empowering.

 If you are feeling fat and unhealthy, it is easy to lose weight (Keto) eat organic fruit and vegetables, hike in the forest and ride a bike and stop smoking and drinking.

It is easy to do because you are the boss of yourself.

If you are feeling spiritually imprisoned, tell yourself that God is the universe and she is not a Christian, or Muslim, or Hindu or Buddhist, she is all and none of them. The Constitution for living is a pretty good start if you need temporary guidance. Get it from my website here http://www.roditch.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/a_constitution_for_living.pdf

If you are feeling unloved, then know that no one can love you, in the same degree, you can love yourself. Stay happy, healthy, inspired, rested, prosperous and generous.

If you are confused about politics, then quit being a member of a team and fight for what you really believe in, not what some corrupt, rich guy is telling you. Start a community garden, get on the school or local council, plant some trees etc.

And, if you are feeling imprisoned in your job, do the free Myers Briggs Test here and read what you really should be doing, and do it.  http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp 

Then read about your type = INFJ  etc here. https://www.16personalities.com/

You give yourself freedom, do it now. Take yourself back. Your self is usually the child you once were before the world fucked with your brain, heart and soul.
