Whose authority or permission do I need to feel free or make me free?
To feel free is my choice from the experience of feeling free in my mind and body which work in tandem. This feeling is often spontaneous and more sustainable when the realisation that all the do's and don't s were imposed in the psyche as established laws of culture, society, political and religious upbringing and modified by peer pressure and the fashion and idiom of the era and day.
This is not free thinking but a series of repetitive phrases and exposure to a particular culture, social ethos and a 'feel' of the silent invisible 'psychic atmosphere' which is subtle and delicate or brutal innuendos and sly glances and body posturing. All this shapes the unconscious and becomes the individual reactions to situations and challenges with the shaping and moulding of behavioural responses and social intercourse.
So permission and authority are conditioned and brain washed conditions, laws, agendas, rules, boundaries, lines to be not crossed or crossed, attack and defence tactics and this large tome is bound up in a package titled ego.
Freedom then is not an automatic and felt response but is a dictate and metered out non spontaneous feeling but a deliberation and tolerance ah la permission of the tome and its many if's and but's do's and don't s.
The words of the song Born Free by John Barry epitomise the feelings;

The words of the song Born Free by John Barry epitomise the feelings;
Born free, as free as the wind blows
As free as the grass grows
Born free to follow your heart
As free as the grass grows
Born free to follow your heart
Live free and beauty surrounds you
The world still astounds you
Each time you look at a star
The world still astounds you
Each time you look at a star
Stay free where no walls divide you
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide
Born free and life is worth living
But only worth living
'Cause you're born free
Stay free… But only worth living
'Cause you're born free
