Freedom of the Mind - Enormous Power

When the mind is totally free it has no limitations and all its potential is available for use. Enormous power is released. The urge to write, sing, dance, contemplate and do things never thought possible before arises. You feel joyful, new thoughts arise and new creations, businesses and ways of living are discovered.

Enormous creativity trapped within is released, many things could be created and lives could be enlightened. When the mind is totally free you are free to do whatever you desire and unlimited ideas arise. Directing Ideas to a specific area brings to light the uniqueness of you. These may be writing, poetry, dancing, singing, art, entrepreneurship, fashion and cookery, giving a new twist to your work, home improvement, spending more time with your children joyfully or simply being more often in solitude.

Arises with total freedoms
The enormous power that arises with total freedoms encourages you to create with total independence. Entirely new creations, unrestricted by society, religion, culture and nationality are born. Once you allow your mind to explore the bottom of your heart and liberally create, enormous power begins to pour from you. Being aware of this power enables you to accept it, helps you not to be disturbed by it, serves you to be aware of it and accept it.

Unknowingly you create
As you acknowledge the enormous power and accept it more ideas will begin to emerge. This is normal and is the authentic nature of the mind. The unrestricted is natural, the restricted artificial.
There is no rule that insists you to act upon every thought that arises. You are absolutely free to choose what to act upon and what not to. If you feel that you need to follow all thoughts it simply is a rule imposed by you. It is a concept that has taken form in your mind and is a frame designed by you. You may feel "this is right and this is wrong". Unknowingly you create rules that govern you and these rules provide you with security. You feel safe operating within rules.

"I must act according to these norms"
"I should not do these"
"I must not question the authority of this"
"I must remain in this job"
"I must follow this religion"
"I must act according to the wishes of my culture"
"I must preserve the honour of my family"
… and the list goes on.

Letting go of rules
What are the rules that govern you? Can you identify a few?
Stop reading, be silent and think of the rule in your life. There is nothing right or wrong in your rules, they are rules that your mind created. Gently witness these rules and inquire about them.
"What are these rules?"
"What may have created them?"
"How do they limit me?"

More clarity
As you inquire more clarity will arise, you will realize how rules restrict you and witness the roots of your thoughts. There is no rule that says; you must hold on to old rules. It is a creation of your mind and you are totally free to choose what rule to hold on to and what to let go. You are perfectly free and absolutely capable of letting go the rules that restrict you.

Ask your heart if it deeply desires freedom. Often your heart would answer "yes". Question, be silent and listen to what your heart says.

If your heart desires freedom let go of rules that limit you. Letting go occurs instantly and you have the power to let go of any rule limiting your freedom now. It is a power you are born with.
If you let go of the paper you are holding onto it will drop. Similarly when you let go of a rule you hold on to, it will drop.

It will exit from your life and disappear. With this disappearance appear an enormous freedom, peace and power. You feel it, you sense it and It occurs immediately - instantly - in a flash.
Boundless blessings!
