No law can make you free, you are free. Nothing can give you freedom, if you have it not already.
The Atman is self - illumined. Cause and effect do not reach there, and this disembodiedness is freedom.
Beyond what was, or is, or is to be, is Brahman.
As an effect, freedom would have no value; it would be a compound, and as such would contain the seeds of bondage. It is the one real factor, not to be attained, but the real nature of the soul.
- Swami Vivekananda
