Reality is intrinsically free because it is changing, uncertain, contingent, and empty. It is a dynamic play of relationships… As long as we are locked into the assumption that self and things are unchanging, unambiguous, absolute, opaque, and solid, we will remain correspondingly confined, alienated, numbed, frustrated, and unfree.
