Lailah Gifty AkitaLiberate yourself from any mental captivity.
About This Quote
Liberate yourself from any mental captivity. Mind bondage is the most common form of imprisonment in our minds. This bondage is caused by our own ignorance, which has us believing that certain thoughts, emotions or feelings are given to us by some higher power. We do not have the power to create these feelings; rather, the feelings come to us because our inner world is dominated by them.
A thought or emotion that we want to resist must be removed from our mind’s environment if it is to be truly destroyed. To liberate oneself from any mental captivity, one must identify and remove all of these unwanted thoughts, emotions and feelings.
