Freedom is not the act of escaping a cage — it is the breaking of the chains within the mind.

The history of humankind is, in truth, the history of fear and confinement. From the very beginning, man grew within a web where fear ruled his tongue and captivity ruled his thoughts. At times, religion convinced him that disobedience was blasphemy; at times, the state taught him that defying the law was a crime; and often, society made him believe that stepping away from tradition was shameful. Gradually, he began to think that whatever he was told must be true — and that to question it was akin to death.

Yet, in every era, there were a few who recognized the deceit of blind obedience. They looked through the eyes of reason and saw that all these systems were merely tools of control. But the bitter truth is this: when many of them gained power, they repeated the same old game — the same fear, the same rules — only this time, under their own command.

The powerful strengthened their dominance by turning books and laws into weapons. The masses were told that obedience to these principles was sacred, yet the creators of those very principles remained above them. It was a psychological game — the people were slaves, and the powerful their masters.

As time passed, the powerful began to fight among themselves. Wars, conspiracies, bloodshed, and ruin became chapters of human history, while ordinary people remained the fuel of this endless struggle. They were consoled with patience and the promise of another world:

“If you find no justice here, be patient — true justice awaits in the afterlife.”

And so, humanity accepted the slavery of the present while seeking comfort in dreams of the future.

The true guidance lies here:

Man must break the chains of fear and blind obedience. He must dare to question, to seek truth in the light of knowledge and consciousness. He must free his intellect from servitude and strengthen his mind so that no false fear or promise can imprison it.

Remember — true freedom is not of the body, but of the mind and the soul. And only those who guard their thoughts not with fences but with flight can truly call themselves free.
