the concept of self like free choice is an illusion.

there is no consent and thus a self cannot exist. say something to me today and I may laugh tomorrow I might knock you out. As jay said it's more a case of allowing your behaviour to become free of fear then you act without constraint and thus come off as high status.

freedom is an illusion because we are influenced by things, all are decisions are based on input that we can't control and thus we have no freedom.
