You never have to do anything. There is always a choice.
Freedom can be willed because it is your own decision to remain in a prison. It is your own responsibility. You have willed your slavery, you have decided to remain a slave, hence you are a slave. Change the decision, and the slavery disappears.
You have invested in your unfreedom. Any moment you see the point, you can drop it; instantly it can be dropped. Nobody has forced unfreedom on you, it is your choice. You can choose to be free, you can choose to be unfree; you are so free that you can choose either. This is part of your inner freedom – not to choose it is part of your freedom. Hence it can be willed.
When one is totally dissolved into freedom and when one is really free, the ego disappears. The ego is your bondage; the ego is your prison. In total freedom there is no ego found. Surrender happens, you start feeling one with existence – and that oneness brings Love.
Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (Osho), The Book of Wisdom (Chapter 26), 1979
In a world where you can do anything and your power is truly limitless, your telos is defined by what you choose not to do.
-Ra, Anfabula
What you do when no one is looking defines what you do when everyone is looking, it informs the eternal telos of a you older than your instantiations.
Ra, From Fear, Lead Me to Love
I think the risks of harm are lower when people are able to sit with the idea that there may be many paths for people, and one is not necessarily better or worse than another, that what is supposed to happen for them will happen, and that {regardless of who you are} if you are decent to people, animals, and the planet, you are not a failure.
