Unless people have spiritual freedom, there will be no such thing as political freedom

Unless people have spiritual freedom, there will be no such thing as political freedom. To be free means that you are not identified with your physical body and its associates, your emotional body and its associates, your mental body and its associates. You sit in the car and tell the car, "Go where I want. Do not take me here. You must obey me."

Most of our life, the car drives us. Sit down and honestly ask yourself, "Who is driving whom?" Are you driving your body, emotions, and mind or are they driving you? If they are driving you, you are not safe on the freeway of the spiritual kingdom. Do not kid yourself. Try to face yourself without any hallucinations, preconceived ideas, or prejudices.
