 The freedom of an individual depends upon that individual’s freedom to alter his considerations of space, energy, time and life and his roles in it. If he cannot change his mind about these, he is then fixed and enslaved amidst barriers such as those of the physical universe, and barriers of his own creation.

 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying, / Pass through the host, and command the people, saying, Prepare you victuals; for within three days ye shall pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which the LORD your God giveth you to possess it.

 All spirits are enslaved which serve things evil
  Percy Bysshe Shelley

 Human must not be enslaved by material. To be a man, you have to be the master of yourself, not the slave of things.
