People throw around the world 'freedom' like it's their god, but they don't even know what true freedom is.

"True freedom is having the ability to be fulfilled independent of what happens in the environment. Almost no one is free now. Only the truth will set you free. Being free means being free of the mind that hides true life from people. Being free is in your head." - from page 8 of "The Present" at www.truthcontest.com

Believing you are free when you are not makes it more difficult for you to see the truth. Most people falsely believe they are free or that they are standing for freedom, even though they are still slaves to the mind. Your mind plays tricks on you that make you think you are seeing the truth, because it wants you to remain it's slave, just as those in positions of power say the people are free so that we will remain enslaved to the human tax farm system.

There are many mistakes and false perceptions that come along with the concept of freedom, and it is imperative that we see them, or else true freedom is never going to be realized. The most common is people externalizing freedom, such as trusting or blaming the legal system or the government to give or take our freedoms and rights. This leads to either pride/nationalism, or the desire for a power struggle, thinking that fighting for our freedoms is the solution, up to and including a violent uprising. The government is just a manifestation of the deceiving mind. The mind hides the truth, and thus we remain unaware of the choice to consciously evolve past the order of the beast. The corrupt entities that have power in this world remove any real choices, while giving us the illusion of choice, such as the voting system, so that we believe we live in a free society and are proud and comfortable. More and more people are seeing beyond this illusion of choice, but they are falling into an illusion is even more compelling and blinding, the illusion of control.

The illusion of free will, of the ability to create a true reality with the mind's imagination, is the ultimate way that people falsely believe they are free. It is the illusion that many so-called spiritual people are falling for and promoting. It is exactly what people want to hear, because it helps them subconsciously avoid death and consciously avoid cognitive dissonance. People go to the extreme and think that they create their own truth, their own reality, and so they arrogantly insist that there is no ultimate truth that is the same for all of us, while spouting BS like "we should respect all beliefs." How much more arrogant, deluded and misguided can you get? Respect false beliefs? The truth is absolutely the same for all of us; none of us are separate from the reality of life we all share, operating as some creator force.

"Thinking we are in control (free will) is the root of all problems on earth. It is the devil/mind’s most powerful tool. When Jesus talks of overcoming, he is talking about overcoming this deception. It separates your spirit from God." - from page 212 of "The Present (with religion)" at www.truthcontest.com

There is no greater way to fool yourself than to think your beliefs create reality. The mind wants to believe this more than anything else, because it separates us from the whole and gives our minds God's job, with the belief that our minds have power, control and free will. These illusions block our awareness of higher levels of the collective unconscious, from which thoughts and inspirations cannot get through until we learn the truth and clear our minds of the falsehoods of this realm. There is no greater illusion than the illusion of control, than the illusion that you are your mind. It may seem like a good alternative to the bleak outlook of this world and the dominance of tyrannical governments and influential profit-hungry corporations, but it is a trap, a deception to the highest degree. The animal mind combined with the deceived mind of man are in an undeclared mental war with the divine mind for the souls of this world. The shadows of the illusions of free will are trying to compete with the will of God, the universal, spiritual agenda, which is to create balance (perfection, life) and to guide the evolution of life to become more aware of itself. People will never be truly free until they see that life is perfect the way it is, and that their mind is just a burden that makes life seem imperfect, keeping us unfulfilled by trying to fix or create reality.

Everything is balanced, you are nothing, receiving, interpreting, and becoming more aware of the infinite movement of chaos and order. You have absolutely no control over life. Not even a little bit, none at all. You have no power or free will, and you could die 15 seconds from now. Your beliefs are worthless, futile and temporary at best. You must really want to see the truth if you want to free your mind. Your spirit is imprisoned by your mind, and only the truth sets it free. www.truthcontest.com
