Blessedness, eternal peace arising from perfect freedom, is the highest conception of religion, underlying all the ideas of God, absolutely free Existence, not bound by anything, no change, no nature, nothing that can produce a change in Him. This same freedom is in you and in me and is the only real freedom.
Worship of God, worship of holy ones, concentration and meditation and unselfish work, these are the ways of breaking away from illusion's net; but we must first have the strong desire to get free. The flash of light that will illumine the darkness for us, is in us; it is the knowledge that is our nature (there is no "birthright" , we were never born). All that we have to do is to drive away the clouds that cover it.
