We have all read horror stories about people born in slavery. How they are constantly abused
Recently there was the story of an African American girl – the last known slave and died a week ago – was abducted and bought from Africa. ( Story starts in late 1800) and she was forced to ” marry” on the ship and worked as a slave
Now, the story is sad and we don’t know how much physical and emotional anguish they had to endure. But there is another slavery your familiar with. That is almost all humans my friend. When born they are both with a tremendous load of karma. They cannot escape from is shackles. And as soon as they have the body, they are now slaves to the senses. To the mind. To their indigence. To their ego. All day and night they are forced to work day in and day out. Wake up – breakfast, lunch dinner, work, chores, need money, wanting power, Fame , appreciation etc. And sleep is a demand imposed upon you by the body.
So all are born in slavery. Few want to wake up to know their Divine self. They may think they want to wake up. But the effort is extremely mild. And our goals and thoughts of future are mostly physical- travel , events, shows, pleasure. All part of mental slavery. Who can stop their mind at will? Still a slave to your mind.
Many will not like it or accept it. But times change and when under stress you try to switch the mind off and you fail. And you realize your helplessly trapped.
So I urge don’t be trapped. Try. Try again. Like the matrix. Great beings are waiting on the other side
Slavery is ugly. Please don’t succumb to it
