Burning the bonds that are holding you back is what it is to be free.
the restraints that prevent you from achieving your goals. You are being told to live a specific way by the voice of society. Your family, who want you to grant them their requests. Your beloved, who desires a lifelong union with you.
Your definition of freedom is different from mine.
The Vedic call to see those bonds and oneself fully is "Know thyself." You can only free yourself once you are aware of what is holding you back.
Knowing is the key to real freedom.
To the degree that God permits, you can release yourself in truth.
In the time and space that are available to you, you may fully live your own life.
You can run as quickly as your body will allow.
You may become aware of your limitations and then choose the best
way to cope with them.
For a human, that is total freedom.
