Freiheit

"Freedom means letting go. People just

do not care to let go of everything. They do

not know that the finite is the price of the

infinite, as death is the price of immortality.

Spiritual maturity lies in the readiness to

let go of everything. The giving up is the

final step. But the real giving up is in

realizing that there is nothing to give up,

for nothing is your own. It is like deep

sleep - you do not give up your bed when

you fall asleep - you just forget it."

- Nisargadatta Maharaj
