Is It Possible to Desire Freedom Too Much?

p. 21

Q: Is it possible to desire Freedom too much? Couldn’t the eagerness in me be an obstacle?

A: Wanting to be truly Free is the most demanding task ahuman being can ever undertake. Do you know why? Because anything else you could ever want and may decide to pursue can only be something that you are doing. In that there will always be some separation between what you are doing and who and what you are. In true Enlightenment, that separation cannot exist any longer. Iam speaking about acondition that is aperma¬ nent endeavor, apermanent preoccupation. Nothing could be more demanding. It's not possible to want to be Free too much. Because if you want to be Free it will take everything that you have to give. How could wanting Freedom too much ever be a hindrance? You have to want it that much for there to be any real chance that you will succeed. 2 1 clarity ol Intention Clarity of Intention: The Foundation of Spiritual Life What Do IReally Want?
