We learned the Enlightenment is skin deep. Pandemic proved our epoch with esteemed figures hunts witches with passion and condemns disobedient to the life of penury and despair. And these are the lucky ones. The unlucky bowed low in salaam and accepted injections changing this lived life for all time.

May these mutations cause us to lose the genes which code for the lies we tell ourselves. Maybe those who claim this is a spiritual war - a journey to a higher realm - are right. There is much going on which does not necessarily meet the eye. The many levelled mind.

Freedom is not based on genetic characteristics. Freedom is more than a state of mind. The mind is fickle, able to create elaborate intellectual structures that are only forgeries of Truth. The mind is actually like a cutting tool, used by our perception to divide into small parts the things we "see." Mental knowledge is not true knowledge, it is a golden lid placed upon the face of the truth. Freedom is similar to a crucible to help smelt out the truth of life, it is essential for the evolution of consciousness. Freedom exists in a human modality as a physical outward manifestation of what is non physical on the inside.

All forms, mental, emotional or physical have a formless non physical energy standing behind it. Therefore, Freedom is an essential movement of our consciousness and cannot be considered with a metaphor of a "tail."

In my amusing idea not primordial freedom was lost but as myth bred out of this featherless,

tail lacking biped was the freedom of tailed thought. A strong preference to be unintelligent.

I love your exploration of these ideas. Clearly we need more discussions like this.

Cheers
