Freedom and the cage || Neem Candies

We deeply disagree with freedom. We may keep saying we want it, but we agree only with the cage. Why do we agree to the cage? Because the cage gives us fruits and vegetables. Freedom means, no more fruits and vegetables. Freedom means, now you are on your own. Go, fend for yourself! And eagles and vultures can attack upon you—the open sky! So, the cage is alright. It’s a cage, but at least my master is giving me some food to eat. You disagree with freedom. You agree with the cage.

You have to ask yourself, “Am I alright with this?” And only you can ask this. I can only prompt you. You have to ask yourself, “Am I alright with all this?” You will have to agree with freedom because freedom really is your nature. You will never feel at ease without freedom, without flight, without realization and intelligence. You will never feel at ease. Never, never!
