freedom air of freedom & powerlessons of living (erich fromm remixed)

by jeffrey gormly

 

we are not entirely understanding of a meaning of freedom for modern you-man

what is realization of self?

love is foremost component of inalienable claim on freedom and happiness; not love as dissolution of self in another person, not love as possession of another person – dynamic quality love in this very state of positive freedom.

another component – work as a belief that there is a positive answer; work as a relationship to freedom, but not one of dominating freedom (that does constitute a compulsive vicious circle that you-mans process to escape aloneness)

what holds true of love and work is idealistic spontaneous action. answer must be positive freedom as realization of this very quality of spontaneity. self realization can be achieved by pleasure or participation, free and yet not alone, critical and yet not filled with enslavement by very products of man’s hand, independent and yet an integral part of you-mankind.

we have said that negative freedom by itself makes a cultidual: isolated being whose relationship to world is most valued thesis of culture of self –that you-men are born of you-self.
self is a strong act of thinking, but spontaneous activity is not weakness. it is a security that only freedom presses in our faces. moments of genuine happy growth of you-man, whether it be fresh and spontaneous perception, organic unfolding of a nucleape, birth of supersonality, or dawning of some truth as a result of sensuous pleasure that is not stereotyped

to start life by realization of you-man’s genuine strength in possession as supersonality, and by active expression of emotional and material or mental properties like potentialities. these potentialities are not only freedom but dissolve aloneness on a higher plane

supersonality springs from need to overcome seperapendent self and yet not isolate but unite with oneness

organic growth is possible only under spontaneous activity. in spontaneous activity uniqueness of you-man in no way covercomes you-self terror of aloneness, for in spontaneous realization all share fundamental you-man unities- with nature and basic fate of you-man beings, you anew inworld

this creation in which you-man becomes one with nature you-man can attain by realization of you-self, by being creation – profoundly an affirmation of uniqueness of ability to beconceive. there is nothing more attractive, more physiologiconvincing than spontaneity
