Paying Tribute To The Tyrant Within Oneself. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore
Paying Tribute To The Tyrant Within Oneself.
For the man to be free,
he must be delivered from himself.
The tyranny of man over man
is but the external expression
of each man's enslavement
to his own desires.
For he who is the slave
of his own desires
necessarily exploits others,
in order to pay tribute
to the tyrant within himself.
Before there can be any
external freedom,
man must learn to find the way
to freedom within himself
amen! tony. we must come to observe this as something in ourselves but not ourselves per se. this reminds me of the gandhi quote, we must be the change we want to see in the world. -glen
Before there can be any external freedom, man must learn to find the way to freedom within himself.......external freedom is a reflection of internal freedom. A thoughtful poem.
A philosophical poem with a nice thought content.10
Before there can be any external freedom, a man should realize internal freedom awakening self. Spiritual realization only brings such freedom from inside. A great and deeply philosophical poem is excellently penned.10
