Thanks for your comment. But in truth, it is hard for me to image based on what you shared that you actually watched the video or understood what was shared. You are simply talking about the physical reality, which was referred to as the first stage of freedom. The second stage of freedom actually transcends what is physical and has more to do with your internal state. Actually having the freedom to express yourself truthfully.

This conversation is not about the political state of the world, even though it is related.

It is about our personal journey as human beings.

In terms of there being one stage and you referring to it as belief in authority. The truth is the physical reality is an authority. You can not transcend the laws of the body, no matter what you believe. So that is one stage, in my perspective. In the next phase you may or may not transcend the idea that some other person or govermental entity has power over you...that is more about the internal state.
