The issue of freedom is far from clear in people's minds. Those who believe that being free means to be dependent on nothing and no one do not realize the danger they are in ; since their heads and souls are empty there are voids everywhere into which all that is negative and dark is ready to rush. They want to be free, yes, but in reality they end up being totally drowned by other forces they do not know. You see this all too often. The devil will find work for anyone whose mind is not filled with divine thought : he will coax this person into dangerous adventures and acts of extravagance and foolishness, which of course lead to the usual consequences. And this because they were ‘free' – or so they thought. We must be committed, filled, occupied, taken over by heaven. Only then are we shielded and truly free. Nothingness does not exist, which is why you must do everything in your power not to be freed from heaven and the light ; you must put yourself at the disposal of the celestial forces in order to receive endless blessings. Human beings can find freedom only if they are committed, and submit themselves to heaven.
