In a world where the very word freedom is debated, defended, and in many places diminished, you may find yourself asking: Am I truly free?

In today’s world, you may not feel free. We see wars erupting and continuing, governments tightening their grip to impose their beliefs upon others, corporations and politics wielding control, and divisions deepening through racism, gender discrimination, and countless systems of oppression. Freedom, in a 3rd Dimension paradigm, often feels conditional—something granted by laws, those in control, or different types of outside circumstances thrust upon us.

When those outer conditions are threatening, we may feel powerless, as though our freedom has been taken away. It’s easy to forget that Freedom, at its core, is not about external permission—it is about internal alignment.

The 5th Dimension Principle of Freedom: You always have Freedom and a Divine birthright. Freedom is always a Conscious Choice in what you think, feel, believe, say, and do. 

This means that no matter what is happening in the outer world, you hold sovereignty within your inner world. No one can control what lives in your mind, heart, and Soul—unless you give them that power.

The Illusion of Lost Freedom

In the 3rd Dimensional paradigm, it often appears that Freedom can be taken away. History and current events give us countless examples—oppression, discrimination, wars, invasions. People have had their voices silenced, their movements restricted, and their rights denied.

And yet, those who have touched true inner Freedom remind us that sovereignty is never external. The Dalai Lama, despite losing his homeland due to invasion and others seeking control and power, never lost his choice to embody Love and Compassion. His Freedom was in his response, in his refusal to let oppression dictate the truth of his Soul and his Divine birthright to be free. 

“When you think everything is someone else’s fault, you will suffer a lot.
When you realize that everything springs from yourself, you will learn both peace and joy.” ― Dalai Lama

This is true mastery. This is true Freedom.

And it is available to you, here and now.

The Trap of the Egoic Mind

What often holds you back from feeling free is not the external world, but the internal one. The egoic mind is often the greatest thief of your Freedom. 

The egoic mind has a need to know and to control in order to keep you safe and protected from what it fears or thinks are perceived threats. It sources its information from the past, conditioning and programming, and what it thinks is the “truth.” Many times, it convinces you that you’re trapped, limited, or powerless, so you won’t do something different or seek a change that’s outside of what the egoic mind deems safe, familiar, or comfortable. 

It lets the past and current conditions or circumstances be the guiding factors, rather than what is possible. It seeks to protect you by clinging to control. But this clinging is the very opposite of Freedom. It keeps you bound, attached, and fearful.

The Higher truth is this … no one and no thing can control you unless you allow them to invade your inner world. Only you can surrender your Freedom. You alone hold the power to choose your response, your state of Be-ing, your perspective.

When you awaken to this realization, you move into the 5th Dimension of BE-ing, where Freedom is not conditional—it is your natural state of consciousness.

Freedom Through Detachment

One of the most powerful practices of Freedom is detachment. The Universal Law of Detachment frees you from the suffering that comes when your peace is tied to outcomes, certain results, or the behavior of others. 

Detachment does not mean indifference. It means appreciating, loving, and enjoying life without allowing your happiness to be dependent on it. Detachment frees you from the illusion that your well-being depends on external conditions and on others in what they say or do.

As the book, Zen Thinking, expresses:
“Non-attachment is essentially a practice of presence and mindfulness. It means to be in the world, but not of the world. Your happiness is no longer defined by anything outside of you. In other words, you remain free.”

Freedom is the liberation from needing life (or you or another) to look a certain way before you allow yourself peace and joy. This is the spaciousness of the 5th Dimension—the ability to live present in Love and sovereign unto yourself, no matter what outer restrictions may exist.

Become Sovereign Unto Yourself

The current world is asking us to awaken. We live in a time when freedoms around the world are visibly being challenged. The restrictions we see around us are reminders of what is innate within us, not as punishments. They can try to suppress, they can attempt to control, but they cannot define the Soul’s Essence of who you truly are.

What’s occurring is calling us to go inward, asking us to remember the deeper truth:

  • No government or another can control your Love.
  • No system can take away your Soul’s wisdom.
  • No individual can silence the voice of your Soul’s Essence.

It is only when you hand over your inner sovereignty—through fear, blame, or egoic mind control—that you lose your Freedom. It is your responsibility—the ability to respond—to claim your Freedom. Your Freedom is rooted in your Soul’s Love, authenticity, and wisdom. 

The 5th Dimension Principle of Freedom reminds us that in any moment, in any condition, you can choose to think differently, feel differently, believe differently, and respond differently. This is Freedom in action.

FREEDOM as a Way of Living

To embody this, let’s anchor the energy of Freedom through the FREEDOM acronym:

◆ Faith – Trust that you are always supported by the Divine, your Soul and Guides, and Universal Order.

◆ Remembrance – Return again and again to the Truth of who you really are … a Soul of Infinite Love who holds wisdom and a Soul-led plan to guide you. 

◆ Empowerment – Claim your sovereignty to choose your response in every circumstance.

◆ Elevation – Rise above the 3rd Dimension limitations of fear, control, and attachment.

◆ Detachment – Release the need to control outcomes or people; choose joy and peace rather than struggle, suffering, and pain.

◆ Openness – Allow the Universe to show you possibilities beyond what your egoic mind can imagine.

◆ Mastery – Demonstrate daily the Conscious Choice to live free in thought, feeling, belief, word, and action.

When you live FREEDOM in this way, no external situation can bind you.

Practical Steps to Embody Freedom

So, how do you live this 5th Dimension Principle of Freedom in a practical way throughout your daily life? Here are five steps to assist you … 

  1. Pause and Breathe – Before reacting, take a breath. Center in your Soul’s Essence – it knows what is in your Highest Order and fullest Potential. Then choose your response from Love and its guidance rather than fear.
  2. Practice Detachment – Release the control and struggle of how things “should” be, when they unfold, and attachment to a particular result. Trust that the Universe is orchestrating on your behalf and leading you into what’s possible beyond what you know today. 
  3. Affirm FREEDOM – Speak the acronym into your day. Anchor Faith, Remembrance, Empowerment, Elevation, Detachment, Openness, and Mastery in your thoughts, words, and actions.
  4. Remember the Dalai Lama’s Wisdom – “When you realize that everything springs from yourself, you will learn both peace and joy.” You always have a choice.
  5. Radiate Freedom Outward – As you claim your Freedom, you inspire others to awaken theirs. Your energy becomes a ripple of liberation for the collective.

The Conscious Choice of Freedom

Freedom is not something given or taken—it is something you embody. It is not granted by governments or denied by oppressors. It is not a privilege that can be taken away—it is a Divine state that can only be remembered, chosen, and lived.

The 5th Dimension Principle of Freedom makes it clear: You always have Freedom. It is always a Conscious Choice in what you think, feel, believe, say, and do.

Today, Consciously Choose to embody this Divine Truth. Not only for yourself, but for the collective too … be the change in the world. By claiming your Freedom, you create a world where sovereignty, Love, and compassion expand for all.

You are free. You always have been. You always will be.

The only question is: will you choose it and claim it, no matter what or whom, and live it?
