Freedom is when you are let loose from what defines you, it's losing your job, home, spouse, country, religion, etc. Nagualism allows you to die and then
get freedom afterwards, like death was not bad enough. It's really adding insult to injury if you ask me.
Being beyond job, family, home, spouse, country, religion, politics, philosophy, background, physical body, sex etc... it's the first step
towards freedom. You don't like the idea, but think about it:
Every illusory identification is a mind contraction of the real thing: this little mold give us some satisfactions and some disappointments... pleasure and
pain, always. If you break the mold, not just temporarily pass it, you will feel spontaneous satisfaction... happiness is the true nature of the spirit. We
condition it and spoil it for us.
The most advanced teachings in this matter say "you are not any of those things... you are That".
Recapitulation, for this affair, is valuable. Most of our identifications with the world happen on a raw, emotional level.
