Difference of opinion in the ideas on freedom. Freedom in material sense and spiritual sense must co exist and otherwise there will be problems in thoughts of worldly outlook. The material uplift of human being can't be seen immaterial as long as humans exist. Here in good sense the poet highlights spiritual freedom and likes.

A really thought provoking excercise. e have log way to materially and to shed ego and attain spiritual freedom is but a utopian idea. A nicely balanced write. Hats off, Akmal.

This is absolutely true and to the point poem. I loved the line 'Freedom, a nonsense of lunatic'.... I also, feel India as a country has not yet gained material freedom, forget the spiritual one, It's only in the paper. I feel freedom is bought and of course we need to free ourselves from stupid ego and pride which is like a dreaming a dream. Realistic and mirroring the society in its truest form.

Of course, we're free physically but are slave metally and spiritually. Freedom is worse for those who don't have ability to use it properly because it may make then astray if they are not governed by spirital laws. Nice poem.

Are we really free? One is free if one feels free. Freedom is within us. Yes, very spiritual. Nice work. Thanks for sharing this one.
