Slavery in man is his sin, his Fall. Man seeks slavery as well as freedom. But the free man goes beyond the correlatives of mater and slave 'to exist in himself', to become like Christ, the freest of the sons of men who was only bound by love.

The truly free man is freed from physological and physical violence, from the State and social pressures, to be entirely self-governing. As a complete person, he is creative in the 'ecstasy of the moment' which is outside time. It is only 'the gathering together of freedom, truth and love which realizes personality, free and creative personality'.
