"A causes B within set of circumstances C. But there exists an Abyss of Energy Transition from the acute cause to the passive effect. Any instant, therefore is when the energy of eternity [meta-energy] can be accessed and experienced by consciousness as an insight or Revelation." Paul Laffoley

When I speak of freedom, I do
