In what, how and for what liberty is acting?

Rest only dreams us.

Alexander Blok

Liberty – the sister of chaos.

There is no liberty without aspiration, and aspiration – without discontent by yourself.

Chapter 1

The affiliation and mission of liberty in life of the human.

Debate goes no one thousand years about concept of liberty. However the sense of liberty is still unclear, treatments are unilaterally or they are unconvincing.

Someone understands it as will, others extend this concept to the natural phenomena, third tie her to a human choice, fourth connect it with necessity, fifth believe that human liberty depends entirely on society and by society is defined, sixth in general deny liberty replacing it by predetermination, the seventh rely in everything on God etc.

Let's give some definitions of liberty.

Liberty – the idea reflecting such relation of the subject to own actions at whom he is their defining reason, and they immediately are not caused by natural, social, interpersonal-communicative and individual-patrimonial factors.

Here liberty is at first an idea, then it is the relation and, finally, it is the reason. Whether not too there are a lot of heterogeneous concepts? Outwardly all it seems very reasonable in this definition, but it is reduced to the human who is considered by the reason of liberty. It and is so clear. But that such is available in the human that he became by the reason of liberty does not reveal.

Liberty is domination over circumstances competently.

Here liberty is the knowledge thanks to which everything has to turn out. And if knowledge does not help, what, liberty will disappear? The knowledge, information is some conditions for manifestation of liberty, but conditions are not so sufficient. The knowledge can be both without the use and with the inadequate use.

Besides, there is no action in knowledge – in itself it is dead: information without use turns into a warehouse. The knowledge, in principle, cannot be the complete, and the person substantially has it as misinformation, following which he comes to crash. Here more likely circumstances dominate over us, and the person – their victim. Not for nothing speak: "A lot of knowledge – many afflictions".

Liberty is an ability to make a choice on the basis of distinguishing of good and evil.

This definition of liberty too approves priority of knowledge for liberty, only no dealings, and certain moral categories that, in itself, is the whole problem. Still nobody knows of it. Something seems by evil for some people, it's the same – good for others. What is here liberty! Anybody has no such ability and cannot has at least because in our world all life is based on an antagonism, and for the person the purpose, the aspiration of his rival cannot be good in any way and often promises to him death. The abstract good or the evil does not exist.

Liberty is possibility of manifestation by the subject of will on the basis of understanding of laws of development of the nature and society.

In this definition to knowledge about which was told above, will as a certain effort for the aid to knowledge is added. To realize even, it seems, the correct laws though in many cases, the laws formulated by limited people, at all no truth, and the delusion, for example, laws of social development, is not enough for their adequate application. Therefore similar application of will on the basis of laws can lead not to liberty, and to bondage that in the history was happening too often, especially in Russia.

On the other hand, if as will to understand realized desire of the person and his ability to conscious management of the acts in decision-making process for achievement of the goals coinciding with its motives, or objectified requirements, as well as that will – a product partly the genetic, partly bringing up by a surrounding medium, will, as well knowledge, cannot be by the cause of acts of the person. Will is more additional motivation, it induces the person to act to some persistence, determination, initiative, but she on herself or in a combination to knowledge instead of liberty can send the person to slavery to a subject or idea to which it forces him to go, will forces the person to make acts according to the chosen purpose, i.e. is not free, and forced. Not it accepts final decisions, it only promotes their achievement. Will generally is not a product of consciousness, and it is a product of the instincts and surrounding medium and will has not the direct relation, in particular, to conscious management of circumstances. Will may serve in the basic for overcoming of obstacles on the way to the purpose. Will aspires to outside, and liberty cannot be outside of the person – it is not a gift. Will maintains activity of the person or suppresses it, but does not define. Therefore it is necessary to will to add liberty as self-defining category in actions of the person. And it turns again that liberty at all does not coincide neither with will nor with knowledge and that it such – is unclear.

Liberty is that allows to the person according to his purposes to manipulate by the subjects of the outside world.

Liberty is already the deputy of God in this definition permitting to the person to live, but as well as God, it is not known what. There is no as such a definition.

Liberty is existence of possibility of a choice of options of an outcome of an event. Lack of a choice of options of an outcome of an event is equivalent to absence of liberty.

In this case "unhappy" liberty gets to dependence from a choice. You will choose not so or you do not see a choice, so there is no liberty at you? Here liberty is put in dependence on external circumstances. At such liberty the human would differ nothing from the computer which, besides, is able to choose better.

Liberty is one of types of manifestation of the randomness directed by a free will (intention of will, conscious liberty) or the stochastic law (unpredictability of an outcome of an event, unconscious liberty), i.e. something opposite to necessity.

Here liberty is arbitrariness grasped by will. If liberty is opposite of necessity, people could not create accidentally the whole civilization and much that in it make not accidental, but consciously and purposefully. Much of what people do based on their needs which arise not randomly. Even desires of the person are not arbitrariness, and proceed from his representations which are formed by an environment.

Liberty is fear releasing the person from all conventionalities of a reality.

This definition reduces liberty to nothing. It is not visible the person in this definition. Being exempted from conventionalities which represent public life, the human is exempted from himself. Liberty to the person is not needed in this case.

Liberty is the person who is projecting freely himself on freely chosen purpose.

Here Sartre strongly went too far, having told three times about liberty, but without having defined it, having noted, however, that liberty and the free person – same. Certainly, without person in our world of liberty does not exist, but that after all forces the human "to project himself on freely chosen purpose"? Perhaps it also is the liberty? Sartre did not give the answer on this question

It is curious that there is no precise definition of liberty. All of these authors of definitions of liberty "beat around the bush". The feeling is created that they define liberty like blind palpating different parts of an elephant: one, touching a trunk, says that the elephant is similar to a snake, another, feeling a foot, claims that the elephant reminds a column.

All these vague ideas of liberty point out that their authors do not know to what it can belong that it is actually and what is its mission.

All these ideas of liberty are fragmentary, chaotic, often false, in places are superficial. At best they snatch out the separate sides of liberty, but these ideas are not able to clarify its true substance.

If to understand liberty literally – as domination over circumstances, even the Lord can have no such liberty, not that the person.

What is it such? How liberty came from? For what it is necessary?

If not to go far, and try to remember national songs in which aspiration of the person to liberty is famous for and the bondage is damned, it is visible that the people understand liberty as aspiration of the person not in prison, and – to the best share. So, people express their dissatisfaction with the fact that there is, and get rid of it involves only by aspiration. Why not to serve by popular wisdom in quality of the basis for definition of liberty?

However, it seems to people that liberty is somewhere outside. But there can be, at best, only the purpose of an aspiration which can be reached or maybe not. Where here is liberty? Liberty does not coincide with the purpose. And here the person has an aspiration always because the aspiration is a conscious desire. Show me of the person who wishes nothing. Even before death the person has desire not to die if his life was good and he got used to it, or when becomes absolutely unbearable, he seeks to die somewhat quicker so long as not to suffer.

Outside much that is: wind, the woods, mountains, other people. It is possible to climb, of course, on the mountain, having set to yourself such purpose. Only, here, liberty there you will not find.

From here it is clear that liberty can be only in the human head which ponders where is better and where is worse, and aspires to the best, without being satisfied by the worst. If the person almost is satisfied with everything and especially does not aspire anywhere, any liberty provided to him from outside, will frighten and irritate him only because it can destroy his insignificant wellbeing. Low level of consciousness, as a rule, does not demand release, and wishes calm and the patronage.

If to address to the analysis, for comprehension of that such actually is liberty it is required to resolve two issues at first: about affiliation of liberty and its true mission.

Nobody will start to object that the highest creation of beingness is conscious beings.

The universe is deadened and becomes at once unnecessary without them. It is possible to argue, from where consciousness undertook. However it is clear that as though avaricious it was not expressed into people, any consciousness as creating formation represents appearance of something larger.

Consciousness, as a matter of fact, presents to the person the world as it can because all human ideas about a surrounding medium initially are given by feelings. Human feelings, despite addition to them of various devices, are very limited in the opportunities. They bear, apparently, only some part of information on the world surrounding us. This part in the processed form also remains at us. It turns out in this regard that the broached object turns into subject, i.e. the person forms own reality on the basis of given him. If all its sensors-feelings gave him other information on the world, and the world would be absolutely other and the person would turn into another being.

However the main thing is that the person, operating, is capable so to process the received information that from it is taken a new to him and the person can use this new for the activity, again producing a new by method of trials and errors.

At this he uses own saved internal resources in the form of memory, results of communication, education, skills, experience, the developed representations, ideas, the continuous operation of the analytical-synthetic centers, imagination with participation of all sphere of feelings. This process proceeds more consciously, and it is not simply reflective. In other words, people, uniting, change the world and themselves together with it. Even not so important, in what direction go these changes, how important that they generally go.

Despite all human achievements, all of us do not imagine yet, than actually we possess and that stands behind consciousness.

It is improbable that knowledge of consciousness will become much more, at least because it is external expression of formations from other worlds about which we know nothing and we learn nothing in our "lowest" world, but, anyway, thanks to representation of these worlds here each person by his particle-consciousness, small, imperceptible, but key not only here, but also everywhere, is attached to the world of reason, creativity and development.

Then a key link and in our world is consciousness.

You can object: and here consciousness if to correlate it to liberty. Here, for example, the person was put in prison. After all he was deprived of liberty? Well then, external forces operate by human liberty. It seems that it is real so. However if to ponder, it is visible that each person is in some kind of prison from own acts, illusions, a restraint by the relations with other people, natural, household and other circumstances, in a word, this prison – beingness. And from it cannot escape. On the other hand, the person appear into the same real prison, as a rule, because of own mistakes, shortcomings, decisions which were born in due time generally quite freely and "with skill" in the head of a convict and you can blame in received prison term of only himself. It turns out that, at least, some absolutely free decisions, for example, by nonsense, excessive self-confidence or thoughtlessness can lead to fatal consequences. Well then, the source of liberty is after all in the head, in consciousness, but not at the uncle outside. Same means that liberty – it is not always remarkable, and often absolutely on the contrary. Same means that liberty assumes response to the terminating action. Consciousness has to foresee this reaction, i.e. to be responsible, or to be ready to assume all consequences of the decision.

Thus, consciousness can be different in level, be manifested individually, but it has to possess a number of properties, have ability to pass from one state into another because in the conditions of human life it is squeezed by various restrictions of the material and public existence from all directions.

In other words, the free creature, almost inexpressible for us, – soul – getting into so restricted framework of human existence, anyway cannot but keep the free spirit in this or that form that depends from its own level of development. Besides, ability to go out beyond the ordinary, beyond a framework of any order is necessary to it for revealing still unknown, for creation of new for itself and for others and, at the same time, for own updating, recognition, change and further development without what soul actually has nothing to do here.

The development process for soul is everything. Therefore liberty of initial, still undeveloped soul is a choice of that human life which corresponds to the level of development reached by soul, i.e. that she does not know yet, did not test and, at the same time, that she is capable to realize and overcome. Liberty of soul is also its aspiration to that to it more on temper and that she wants more. But its liberty – and this is main thing – is rooted in that she comparing herself with her close souls, sees own drawbacks, omissions, weaknesses, and dissatisfaction by own state leads soul to research of opportunities for elimination of own shortcomings visible by it.

To be exempted completely from that soul already saved up and learned in other lives, in order to avoid helps from there, withdrawal from planned aside, soul before transition to our measurement and before the new birth in a body blocks own "I", being born as if "blank sheet", ready to new tasks, new tests, new decisions in the independent existence as the person with pure consciousness.

There is as if a falling of soul from "high spheres" into our "rough" world which during all human life will resist to soul. For soul – the self-consciousness which remained at her, liberty which is rooted in her, oppose her, more precisely, her consciousness – all other world and most of all same as her the people having own consciousness and own purposes sometimes coinciding with its purposes, and frequent – contradicting them. As far as she "will rise" or "will fall" in this world, or will reconcile to it, as her consciousness and will change.

Anyway, this voluntary solution of soul in the pure consciousness to oppose herself to our awful world, limiting own primordial liberty, it is necessary to respect. It is not so important that will turn out at soul as it is important that she does it in order to not stand still. It will turn out once.

All people around are the same clear first consciousnesses which subject itself voluntary to temptations, offenses, fears of the antagonistic world built on the mutual devouring of each other and the only thing that at them is – it is liberty built in their consciousness, i.e. aspiration as much as forward, to new. At many of them delusion are so great that them consider as villains, but they with time, having learned that such villainy, will wash away in other lives guilt by great feats or great victims.

Thus, consciousness has to possess by possibility of an exit out of limits of any established order. Otherwise it cannot on own essence, and if to assume that such opportunity disappears, consciousness walks away like as it leaves the person at the moment of his death.

It is clear that without the possibility of going beyond any order consciousness can not to act, and so to consciousness, and more, in fact, no one in the known world, must belong this possibility of release, or just liberty.

From here follows that the mission of liberty consists in providing for consciousness of continuous development in a rigid grip of the material world in shape of being replaced carriers of consciousness whom we are, mortal people, unlike consciousness – external manifestation of immortal soul.

Liberty is not some spare part which has been built in consciousness. Liberty is not domination over circumstances, and it is natural state of consciousness, aggregate of its aspirations which have been caused initially by its dissatisfaction by itself, and aspirations of consciousness can have the different nature – as internal, not having the apparent reasons, and external which is dictated by this or that necessity.

Soul, consciousness in the world cannot have absolute liberty not connected by anything because soul always is in development, and achievement of absolute liberty, when there is no obstacles which should be overcome, is the end any development.

Therefore, in the presence of consciousness in the person if, for example, he not in fainting, the person is always free, i.e. he always has these or those aspirations which forcibly or naturally are not imposed to him. However the person does not swim in free waves of ether, he lives, and from all directions the person is subjected to the pressure as purely physical factors, and the public environment which "imposes with their flags" of the person.

Everyone and everything try to devour with each other in the nature, something similar not literally, but occurs in the human society.

Life human is worth little, it is short, imperfect, occupied, except, actually, survival, as a rule, trifles, livelihood problems, aspiration to bypass the neighbor, to snatch out a slice of the power, money, glories, honors or, at least, the calm. That was yesterday, is forgotten today.

All this would be similar to children's game if not the mass of troubles and sufferings which accompany all these short lives, and do not rescue from them neither money, nor honor, glory, anything.

The number of people on Earth grows, the overwhelming part them lives worse than animals. The allocated smaller part prospers outwardly, and actually it decays, parasitizing on the others. And they will be responsible for it and it will be a shame to them before itself. But at them will be, and not one, opportunity to wash away guilt.

Here the free and pure before soul gets to what conditions, being manifested in the human in the form of consciousness that actually and does him by a reasonable entity.

As it is paradoxical, namely resisting, hostile environment is necessary to soul and, so human consciousness. Only initial souls act in our imperfect world. They as children of loving parents in the kind world do not know sorrow or evil, and in general they imagine a little what it is actually. And, the same as to children, it is impossible them to sit eternally at loving parents, and just as grown, but still unreasonable children go to life willy-nilly souls go to us over here. Only, unlike people, they don't die after vital drudgeries, diseases, hunger, wars, simply an old age, and come back into own world in order to appreciate own deeds – that they, free creations, did in this inconsistent world where necessity dominates?

And they come back to correct what they have done earlier, in another shape, but with the same soul which is eager of changes.

It is clear from here that consciousness possesses both internal and external liberty. Internal, or as at us speak, creative liberty can be boundless, more precisely, it is limited only to opportunities of the individual consciousness, the level reached by it; external liberty – is defined, on the one hand, by environment, on the other hand, by already reached level of consciousness of the individual.

Consciousness by one own part, more precisely, in one state, plans the purposes, creates projects, in another state it tries to plan a liberate of path to these projects, and will, in the form of a combination of instinctive and natural qualities, fruits of education, tutoring and desires creates the necessary tension, effort, induces the person to action to reach a goal.

These purposes can be to ridiculous insignificant, shallow, pathetic, selfish, negatively directional, but can be and noble, great, disinterested. Actually, the reached consciousness level is also defined by quality of the purpose. And in the depth the consciousness knows that it is actually, on what it is capable, that is not enough for it and, respectively, it is distressed or proud of itself and makes plans of the further perfecting.

In other words, liberty is that state of consciousness which, proceeding from a dissatisfaction with itself, highlights the space which is necessary for conducting of prepared by consciousness of projects in another state, partially compensated this dissatisfaction, and will as a derivative by nature and education-tutoring the part of the person, upon command of consciousness induces the person to action, to overcoming by him revealed and unexpected obstacles to the purpose.

Thereby the project or a piece, or still something, conceived by consciousness in the corresponding state of reflection or creation is as though delivered upon the "corridor" revealed by consciousness and liberated by the human according to the plan of this liberation, prepared by consciousness in the state of destruction of possible obstacles, to a place of its realization where the person starts acting, whether it be construction of the house or writing poem, receiving certain satisfaction temporarily.

Without the free state of consciousness, i.e. a state of a dissatisfaction with itself, demanding other – changes, motion forward; without creation of conditionswhich are necessary for these changes in the form of plans of overcoming of obstacles for prepared by consciousness earlier in its conceiving state of the project; without the will inducing the person, having overcome the obstacles, specified to him by consciousness in the free state, to start carrying out the project; development as person, and his soul, consciousness would not be possible.

The dissatisfaction of consciousness defining main aspirations of the person is not feeling of some discontent, type – the eyelash got to an eye, – and understanding by soul of own imperfection. Created in a conceiving state by consciousness projects simply would "hover" in it, if there is no this dissatisfaction that provides aspiration to achievement of a goal which consciousness have thought by necessary at present, and will induces the person to go on the planned way to the purpose, overcoming or bypassing obstacles. And the purposes appear in consciousness only thanks to its eternal dissatisfaction with itself, and, so, by aspiration to change themselves through the reality.

Thus, in the human during this process of implementation of the project, the commit of an act or an action are combined under the auspices of consciousness liberty, necessity and will.

Procedure of manifestation of liberty state of consciousness is such. At first consciousness reflects existence only that environment which corresponds to its aspiration based, in turn, for example, on a certain unsatisfied requirement, scanning everything around. However before it consciousness into itself fixes this dissatisfaction, creating on the basis of representations available for it an image of that it would like. This image can be very indistinct, but exactly it specifies the direction of motion. Therefore consciousness scans environmental space finding suitable subjects or situations. If it finds them, it uses anyway if is not present, then consciousness defines obstacles to the created image of aspiration and a way of their elimination. Will it succeed in human actions to achieve the desired – is another question. But, actually, the issue is already resolved in consciousness. This picture shows work of liberty of consciousness of the person in his practical actions.

We try in this work to clarify problem of liberty, considering that it does not exist outside individual consciousness which is formed only in community of reasonable individuals, depends on the level of consciousness of the specific individual who is in concrete community and, thus, we believe that the individual is free so, how high the consciousness level acquired by him.

In turn, level of consciousness is defined by a time factor, i.e. by events in which the understanding subject participates. Therefore liberty as a state of consciousness concerning the outside world on an initial stage of development of human communities, practically, was not manifested – reigned necessity of a survival. Then the conscious subject started understanding that environment surrounding him with existing cycles and conversions gives in to transformation, human communities start changing environment, forming own reality, reorganizing, changing order surrounding him in which the person has an opportunity to doubt, choose, project, work, moving ahead or rolling away back.

Eventually technological development of a civilization leads the person to understanding of the power over the nature with particular release from its fetters. The mankind gets an opportunity cardinally to change living conditions, its number grows. It seems, as well human liberty has to grow. However it appears that level of technological development, i.e. the external is not defining for growth of the liberty of the person. Social relations, having expanded the range of a choice of life opportunities of the person in comparison with archaic society and having brought him up to a democratic choice of a social system, narrowed an individual choice of the person up to that limit at which he is capable only to exist but not fully to live in the framework of a consumer society allocated to him. Each person perfectly realizes that to develop potentially the free consciousness, the aspirations to the outside which are formed at him all the time, to him practically nowhere.

So the declared liberty, apparently, provided by society to the person is illusory, and he is capable although often and wishes otherwise, to the little. It once again proves that liberty does not come from outside, and depends, first of all, from internal state of the person and according to the society consisting from people which (the society) on this basis is formed.

Apparently, the problem of liberty is more complex, than it is represented originally.

Liberty at all is not direct property of a universe, the nature. On the contrary, rigorous laws which, in particular, control existence and development of the material worlds and various measurements act there, without allowing them to collapse. And ratio of uncertainties only speaks about level of our comprehension of a reality, but not about existence at a universe of a free will, the liberty of actions.

Liberty did not exist nor up to a universe or up to God, as, for instance, considered N. A. Berdyaev.

Two assumptions can be here.

The first consists that if by the act of creation from Nothingness was created the world (Berdyaev trusts in this) that, as we know, neither life, nor the human, at first was not in this world. Liberty is not necessary to a lifeless matter, a lifeless matter is "satisfied" by an order of own movement. And who needs in the lifeless matter which is not aware itself how that if only the lifeless matter is a basis for something else? From where then liberty undertook in our world? So, it together with the person was created by God who has created before it organic life which he did not give liberty too. So in this case Berdyaev's reasons concerning the pristine of liberty, its emergence from a chasm, from Nothingness look unconvincing.

The second assumption consists that it is impossible to make something from Nothingness. Well then, this something existed, in our comprehension of time, always. At such assumption if everything including mind were always, God as Prime Creator is not necessary. Well then, and liberty existed always but it was not at the nature which conscious is not inherent, and liberty was at mind. [1]

The first assumption concerning emergence of all reality, which is typical for the bound, religious consciousness, relies only on influence from outside, on a miracle and looks unconvincing.

The second assumption looks more reasonable because there is nothing external as well as there are no miracles in it.

As for contraposition by Berdyaev of ideal spirit and a «rough» matter, beingness in the respect that the matter cannot have spirituality, we note that based on the latest experimental data as well as theoretical models, in particular, based on the theory of superstrings, our Universe has more than ten measurements. Therefore the assumption is possible that these measurements, from the point of view of matter density, accommodate as though on the type of a ladder, approaching at its top to the point of a singularity, and, so-called, the point of a singularity is characteristic by lack in it of space and time. It turns out that there may be measurements in which matter, in our understanding, there is practically no, and mind which is present there, though not disembodied, but other. Apparently, souls descend to our world from there, passing all "ladder" of various measurements from bottom to top in what consists their cycle of development in our Universe. There can be a set of options including known option of the holographic Universes where all variety of the worlds is secondary and each their particle is only a holographic projection of a single reality. In other words, apparently, constant structures are only relatively independent subordinated substances which are manifested from integrity of fluid motion and then being dissolved back in it in never-ending process of a becoming. [1]

Закладка:

Anyway, it is clear that reasonable formation from another measurement can be retained in our measurement only by means of creation of our world, for example, in the form of symbiosis of a high-organized animal and field formation of the unknown to us type which we call soul. Thereby the eternal soul and a finite body are united temporarily, forming the person.

Apparently, other options, besides, that liberty belongs to mind, consciousness, is not available. It existed, exists and will exist, how long there is mind as its inalienable state which is capable to model a violation of any order without admission of chaos and, thereby, to promote development. Liberty as the everlasting dissatisfaction of consciousness also is valuable because liberty does not allow mind to fall to stagnation, calm and wellbeing. Liberty does not allow falling asleep to mind, does not allow for mind to become despondent and it always finds space for a output from any situation for mind.

It is possible to tell also that liberty is ability of soul as particles of Supreme Mind which external manifestation is consciousness, to counteract any circumstances. Degree of this rebelliousness to circumstances in planning of the actions and success of these actions depends on a level of development of concrete consciousness.

It seems by the cursory examination that the liberty of the individual fluctuates between two extremes: necessity and arbitrariness. If to understand as necessity any external order which is not entering into structure of consciousness, but which is reflected in it, and arbitrariness as the chaos, it is represented that liberty has to reckon with existing order and not reach chaos.

However, as we showed above, it is only an upper part of iceberg.

There are a lot of sides of liberty as a state of consciousness of the person, but existence of a similar state means that the person is capable to counteract anything, breaking any current order for the sake of acquisition of the new knowledge, new feelings, opening of the new horizons, without reckoning with any conventionalities of beingness.

Liberty for ordinary individual behavior is represented to the person as opportunity to do anything that soul will wish, to be free, as a wind. This representation is polar to common schedule of life where even the idler is compelled to eat, to drink, to put on, to consider desires and reasons of those who looks after him etc., i.e. the life schedule forces the person to do absolutely not that he would like in this moment.

Hence the idea of liberty arose as the dreams that, here, if was allowed to me, I would make such … And further the thought does not go. The person in the depth of consciousness understands that even if to allow emergence of a similar situation, he will be lost: he will not know plainly that to do or will start doing nonsenses.

Common life for the person is some bog and liberty for him is flight. But if he in a bog together with others can potter about somehow, he is not able to fly independently. However limitation in actions does not mean absence of liberty for the person. It always is with him, in his consciousness, time he makes decisions consciously and these decisions at all are not always dictated by this or that necessity, and makes actions according to them. The person does not understand that liberty is in his consciousness. Therefore there is an expression: to strive to liberty as to something external whereas, in practice, the external is only a means for return of the person to itself, to own soul.

For activity in society, for daily work liberty is represented to the person as space where he could act on own understanding, without pressure from outside, choosing that is pleasant and, doing it so as it turns out. But it won't work for anyone.

Therefore the person during life realizes in practice that liberty as something the external which he could receive and in which he could live, does not exist, in difference, for example, from bread, shout, bustle, in general, – of time and space.

On the other hand, the person does not produce liberty as a yarn, liberty, in fact, immediately does not depend on his actions, on the contrary, his actions, substantially, are compelled by circumstances up to his grave.

It is visible from here that liberty can be only by a state of consciousness, liberty depends on its level and it is changed together with consciousness. The high level of consciousness means high degree of probability of overcoming by the person of any obstacles, high degree of his liberty, ability to development, and low – its passivity, humility as well as desire simply "to go down stream".

All these reasoning and life realities allow to define liberty which is manifested in actions of the person in life, as the state of a dissatisfaction of consciousness by itself which is realized into development of ways of own change by means of exposure on existing beingness taking into account counteraction of beingness.

In other words, the everlasting dissatisfaction of consciousness with itself evokes its aspiration to be changed into own existence in the conditions of the resisting environment.

If living conditions do not allow the person to dominate completely over circumstances, nobody and nothing prevents him to strive for this: the approximation to an ideal is too, in a sense, finding of larger liberty.

Known expression: "At last I broke loose" means transition of the person to rough activity, i.e. being available dissatisfaction, blocked aspirations start being implemented. It is not necessary to think that liberty can be outside, round you. If there are no aspirations, be all to your services around, but anything it will not be necessary for you. The rich idlers who are quickly tired from life know about it well.

If the person, generally, does not show displeasure by life and to anything does not aspire, such passivity means temporary blocking its own aspirations by itself because of, as a rule, external pressure that is characteristic for "weak" consciousness. As a result, these aspirations, without finding itself a way out as there is no completely satisfied person, except the insane, latently destroy consciousness of the person and lead him to mental diseases.

Not the term "liberty" in this regard could be more precise, and the term "release" because consciousness does not wait for liberty, and always itself seeks to be released from the former, anyway to destroy it, to replace own shell, to be expressed in a new way. I.e. liberty as process of release is means for development of consciousness, development and represents the true purpose of consciousness, soul. There are no aspirations – there is no liberty also, there is no development also. The person in a similar state is not needed to own soul any more. She does not want to remain in him. And he gets sick and dies if he “will not revive the spirit".

Therefore, intuitively understanding that liberty is release, destruction of the existing order in which, perhaps, it was quite cozy to someone, liberty is so respected, feared, and philosophers are not able to understand from the standpoint of logic, what it is. And really: have something to fear.

After all, actually, liberty in practical life is not a state of pure reflection which can be about anything, not creation of abstract designs, and a state of model operation of ways of removal of obstacles on a way to exercise of specific projects available while only on paper or in the head. In other words, it is a path to the release from fetters of the present, whatever it was fine outside and inside, for the sake of finding new.

This is required still to undeveloped soul in our suffering world.

It is visible from this that liberty, or release provides possibility of fight against any circumstances.

Actions of consciousness for creating favorable conditions on the achievement of objectives, being put everyday by the person, can be reduced to routine planning and statement of tasks. Nevertheless, it is too no other as release of a path for receiving conceived.

Liberty is a core of the consciousness expressing invariable dissatisfaction with itself. Therefore any consciousness always tries to think up something unusual, new, interesting, maybe, even the useful, and, at the same time, always tries to ponder, as though for this interesting to clear away a place from already made and therefore not so interesting.

Here link between the term "liberty" and a verb "to release" is traced (its analogs: to break, to liquidate, to destroy, to bypass and to permeate).

It is known that extremes meet: and in case of achievement of the purpose, when receiving the necessary result occur together creative, collecting power of consciousness with his destructive, releasing force. Really, adequate planning by consciousness of the person of own actions, leading him, despite all difficulties of a way to achievement of the purpose, implementation of the conceived project, causes in him sometimes such degree of satisfaction that he remembers these moments as the happiest in life.

However, after achievement of the purpose right old, unresolved problems appear immediately, arise new, and process is resumed.

So liberty belongs to consciousness, and her mission – ensuring continuous development of consciousness, and actually, soul as particles of Supreme Mind. [1]

Consciousness in the human can be manifested only at his immediate contact with other consciousnesses. Therefore children from the earliest age attentively listen and give heed by all other organs by any information coming to them, especially from relatives. Quickly enough they start telling and carrying out a conscious activity. All this was investigated well by physiologists and psychologists.

The main thing in this process is that in intercourse of one consciousness with others or people, collective consciousness is formed. It starts functioning like individual consciousness and in it the main features of individual consciousness are manifested and, in particular, a state of liberty. Its degree with development of a civilization grows. It is necessary for exercise of planning of various works, numerous transformations, innovations and etc.

The principles of manifestation of this state are similar to the main manifestations of individual consciousness: there is an internal state of liberty which is generally expressed in culture of a nationality, and an external, "working" state which substantially in antagonistic society is exposed to deformation both in work, and in public life.

The overwhelming majority of people is compelled to sell own labor to survive, in every possible way to adapt to life. Also it is big luck if the person finds work on temper and abilities in which he can just show the aspirations to new, i.e. realize the liberty.

People won only rather recently the liberty of speech, meetings, opportunities to create these or those democratic institutes in public life. However all this is perverted because in the society of total consumption any information, any institutes are used for preservation of this society stagnating in public consciousness, blocking developments of the person. That is a civilization now, having achieved the considerable success in technological development, turned the person into a slave not even his desires, but actions of Moloch of a kingdom of consumption who crushed under itself even culture, having made it mass, low-standard and apoplexy. The free people are not necessary to such society, and obedient consumers of any rubbish are required to it.

Thus, if the individual consciousness in the case of certain efforts can preserve the inner peace, own internal liberty, it becomes more difficult to do to any collective consciousness. Blocking of free aspirations both in public life, and in the personal can become so strong and effective that development of consciousness practically will stop everywhere and, in fact, the similar civilization will be unnecessary. It or will be scattered in ashes, or will pass into the long-lived state of stagnation on the basis of equilibrium small formations like kibbutzim of Israel. [1, 2]

Consciousness – not the computer intelligence and not an instinct from which as it is considered, intuition develops. Consciousness is indivisible on parts. It has the mixed structure in the human and consciousness is only part of soul: all natural, unconscious and conscious is mixed in it. The result of this is that a person, knowing that he does a stupidity, anyway it does. And it, as it is paradoxical, is very good because does to the person not by any robot but by living creation which is capable to make mistakes, but which is capable both to grieve over this and correcting the error.

Liberty as a state of any consciousness is given to everybody, and not just to the elite. Therefore any person is capable to creativity. Preponderance for conscious activity in different people, depending on the level of development of a particular consciousness can be either in the direction of intellectual and sensual sides in the direction of activities. That is obviously manifested respectively in scientists and in artists. Creativity as such, may be anywhere because it is transformation of any known in some new that is manifested in rationalization and in finding of new properties, combinations of various subjects and phenomena that may be and for the shoemaker, and for the perfumer, and for the baker.

As for intuition, manifestation of links, images, relations which were not earlier unknown can be only by the reinforced preparation of consciousness for the corresponding process in the form of studying of background of a problem, various approaches to it and attempts of penetration into an essence of the studied process. Only then, but not from the first, something will turn out. Sometimes it takes a whole life. Question is only in object of consideration, in level of consciousness of the person, in properties of his natural character, for example, in persistence, determination, diligence, these or those abilities, skills. Apparent suddenness of inspiration actually is based for the most part by distant time of previous corresponding work of consciousness – nothing will grow except weeds on empty place. Intuition actually is as though momentary setting of the whole image of an unknown whereas before there were only its separate parts in consciousness. Only release of the corresponding part of consciousness from all the stereotypes in free niche which is fitted and adjacent to each other all seemingly unrelated before facts, feelings and thoughts may be by the trigger to "accretion" of dead parts into live and new image.

It is impossible and the occurrence of genius without such a process, but, in contrast to usual intuitive godsends, there is some kind of resonance found by him of the external and the ripened internal in sight of a desired objective at particular mood and preparation. As a result, deep, enormous force and expressiveness images, schemes, imaginations which he wishes but which in his consciousness are not present, not out of consciousness as top layer of soul, and from within the soul, he can get at this moment of his life through the blocking cutting off soul from its external manifestation – consciousness. Treasures of any soul which has passed through many lives, and bound to other souls are immeasurably in comparison with any human consciousness. But even at geniuses such breakthroughs happen seldom, as it is visible on their unequal creativity.

And the melancholy seeming causeless, being rolled suddenly on the person, is an echo of his unfulfilled aspirations, a regret on unfulfilled that was wished so by his consciousness and that he did not manage to execute. In other words, it is awareness by him of the inefficiency using liberty what is manifested always in anguish despite the fact that the person always has liberty.

And the melancholy seeming causeless, being rolled suddenly on the person, is an echo of his unfulfilled aspirations, a regret on unfulfilled that was wished so by his consciousness and that he did not manage to execute. In other words, it is awareness by him of the inefficiency using liberty what is manifested always in anguish despite the fact that the person always has liberty.

It should be noted that people living on Earth have consciousnesses which are very different by level. Consciousness of the cannibal is probably not really similar to consciousness of the Nobel winner. Therefore people have different opportunities. Everyone does that, on what he is capable. Anyway, liberty of consciousness is guaranteed to every person because he always has soul. And the person realizes, unlike an animal, own actions, though he acts often restricted, and often – not elaborately. The main thing for life process is that the person, as a rule, is not passive, but tries to learn something the new, consciously changing reality, and absolutely no matter for what purposes he does it – adapting to reality, seeking to dominate over it or creating new forms of culture or simply sowing corn in the field. All this goes to "moneybox" of soul, anyway, enriching it by new facts and relations. Any new fact, any negative or positive consequences of activity, human life, relations with other people represent indisputable interest and importance for soul in its development. Matter – not only obstacle for a life gust, but it is necessary condition for its exercise and movement forward. Really, soul, consciousness cannot live without support on beingness.

Many thinkers look for the reason of life, action, liberty outside – in God, super consciousness. Apparently, such approach follows from explicit or implicit recognition by them of the fact of creation of the world whereas all beingness never was created by nobody and did not appear from any abyss, and it existed always, as well consciousness, in own uncountable changes and combinations. Souls, consciousnesses were always, and there was liberty in them always as dissatisfaction of consciousness with itself without what development of soul, consciousnesses would not be possible. Christ said allegorically that the Kingdom of God is not somewhere, and inside us.

Time is a condition for manifestation of consciousness because there would be no events without time, there is no support without time neither for changing things, nor for changing, developing among things and relations consciousnesses. All the rest with respect to time for consciousness is secondary.

Merge with life is not produced on the basis of an instinct and intuition.

The person is capable to act consciously in life. And this is main thing – the human is rather free in the actions at such relation to life. Therefore, he is not interested to be content with the old, and he is moving somewhere, optionally forward, not necessarily making discoveries and learning the secrets of life, but necessarily consciously changing the world and themselves with it, more precisely, changing own consciousness: it is required for development of soul, for which any person is only the means seeming independent, but indeed operated by consciousness, which is nothing but an external manifestation of soul.

Liberty is not limited to searching truth by the human because searching truth by the human loses meaning after disappearance of the person and mankind. At the same time that Heidegger quite precisely noted, "here-beingness", understood as solicitude, defines a condition in which consciousness is manifested as far as really it is necessary to take care about consciousness, having created for it a point of support for development in the form of the reality.

Liberty cannot own by anybody and anything because it is a state of consciousness which owns by everything including liberty. Liberty is means through which consciousness passes in the human the world, changing it and itself. All reality is not being revealed in Nothingness and together with consciousness exists, in our comprehension of time, eternally. So soul which is manifested in consciousness of the person exists eternally, as well liberty in it.

Essence of the human cannot be rest. Essence of the human is restless soul endowing him by all differences from an animal the main thing from which is the self-consciousness. Through the person soul works in the form of independent consciousness, undergoing all weave of beingness, opening it and opening to it through state of liberty of consciousness.

Genuine existence or not genuine does not exist. The changing world exists and has existed always consisting from conditionally lifeless matter and living beings which part possesses consciousness. The person thus is the transitional formation, possessing by animal nature and at the same time – by consciousness. It gives to him special characteristics which no one else has because "cocktail" of instincts and self-consciousness which are inherent to him operating in the antagonistic world, combines in itself the most alive in this mix of passions, reflections, sufferings, satisfactions, losses and discoveries, free aspirations and comprehension of own fast and inevitable end. It is necessary for development and acquisition of experience for initial souls in order to they are not being forgotten in own immortality.

Beingness as such, cannot be in statics. There is only co-beingness, i.e. – something in time, or incessant events, i.e. – one or other life in which consciousness has been integrated always. And the human and even consciousness is not "the shepherd of beingness". Consciousness in various manifestations is the highest formation of beingness without which simply would not be beingness, as well as without co-beingness would be impossible manifestation of consciousness also.

Soul requires a finite, temporal existence in something to be manifested in this finite in the form of consciousness. But for what this finite needs to soul?

Sense of beingness, reality for soul and consciousness is not in some existence at all. It is uninteresting and it is senseless. If to go further, sense of existence is not in pure cognition because cognition is not necessary by itself. Self-consciousness is given to the person, a finite being, to live, i.e. to feel, to understand, to be mistaken, to admire by open novelty by something. All this cannot exist without time and liberty. Therefore the immortal soul becomes mortal in time to live, and not exist. The facts, experience, sense of all her lives, taking shape and being reworked give to her the chance to evolve constantly. Lives of all souls, integrally uniting in whole which is inconceivable for us, give evolving and living God, more precisely, Supreme Mind. All this exists, in our comprehension of time, eternally, i.e. it had no beginning and there will be no end because combinations of reality are infinite, uncountable and boundless. Therefore the factor of time can be explained only by one – necessity of events. All the rest, in fact, is the secondary. The immortal and the all-powerful is manifested in the weak, the finite in order to live, using all paints of life and being enriched with it, more and more comprehending itself.

Initial dissatisfaction of "young", initial soul by itself as though asks soul to remain alone with the world in the human and to try to manifest itself in a isolation from the omnipotent world of souls in the world of being destroyed things and transient events. In the "abandonment" if to use Heidegger's nomenclature, soul of the human get opportunity to continue "to do itself", using all life opportunities, but trying not to cause damage to the environmental. The last is a problem for initial soul. Soul has to overcome it first of all in many human lives. At the same time "abandonment", in practice, is rather conditional notion for soul because she is not lonely, and lives in community of similar to her human souls which not always reject her, and support in many respects. Besides, soul will surely return into own world with "baggage" acquired in current life.

All formations of our world are finite. And recognition of the person by the center of all means that with death of the person and mankind disappearance all acquired by them too vanishes. It not only is not efficient, but also it is senseless. However the person in consciousness meets infinity which is not afraid of death, but receives it in the human, without knowing that she, soul, is immortal. In itself this fact is the most powerful push for transformation of soul to more loving and understanding being. At the same time all acquired by people does not vanish, and remains in souls.

The death itself really gives liberty, but not in that sense in what many philosophers denying existence of soul understand it. The death gives liberation to soul from her temporary body, which executed the functions for further advance in its development and perfecting.

Time is the condition of existence not only a person, but and – all eternal beingness and it means that beingness eternally moves and changes. This eternal, in our comprehension, stream of events – time incessantly brings novelty in existence of consciousness, allowing him to develop himself infinitely. Gust, more precisely, aspiration is one from characteristics of liberty of consciousness at the heart of which its eternal dissatisfaction by itself is, i.e. – eternal aspiration to perfecting. Expansion of this gust-aspiration in creative-destructive work of consciousness – another characteristic of liberty of consciousness – just also means that the person during life accepts beingness on himself, creating own reality on the basis of transformation of the surrounding according to decisions of own consciousness.

However this work of the person as though for itself, actually is work for soul, opening in activity of human all new and new sides of life for itself, fixing them in itself concluding thus them in eternity, creating as to itself, and to Supreme Mind, whose particle is it itself, not cold and detached existence, but quite alive, polychromatic, awful and wonderful life with all its mistakes, finds and sins.

Thesis of Kant and Heidegger, substantiating thinking by an inevitable extremity of existence for which thinking is a derivative from the person, thus, is absolutely inadequate. The person – only means for manifestation in the finiteness of immortal soul which through the person realizes her potentialities including liberty for own development and life in various conditions of beingness which highest representative is soul.

That is why Plato costs above Heidegger. According to Plato, thinking wins death because the body dies, but not soul which is released from the temporary destiny. Human life, so, at once finds sense in the temporary existence. It is another side of liberty of consciousness of soul when, having exhausted existence in one, and having considered it, soul passes to existence in another, new for her.

From a position of development of consciousness in the process of a support on beingness it is not important the choice of this or that, it is the right choice or not, it is determined it or not, but it is important that consciousness of the person makes the decision on change of situation outside not as an animal – unconsciously, but in the form of the project that is reflected subsequently and in internal state of consciousness because any change towards unknown, new, all the same – poor or good, is an additional contribution to "baggage" of consciousness for the subsequent assessment and acceptance in attention for further actions. That is even in the most determined situations, except the complete stagnation, consciousness, anyway, develops, learning new for itself. Any conscious decisions in the form of projects, imaginations, ways of overcoming of obstacles to them, aspirations, ideas about their consequences, i.e. designed purposes also are liberation from a former order, or – liberty.

However it is necessary to know for comprehension of this in an integral type not only affiliation of liberty, but also its mission which was under the force to only antique thinkers in certain degree.
